Confluence Academy cross-appealed the grant of an exemption to the \"school spacing\" requirement. The appellate court affirmed the denial of New Life's plat-and-petition exemption, finding the ordinance constitutional, not vague, and supported by evidence. The court reversed the grant of the school spacing exemption, deeming the BBA's decision arbitrary and unreasonable, and remanded with instructions to reverse the BBA's decision.","primaryTopic":"administrative-law","topicSlugs":["administrative-law","property-real-estate","other","civil-procedure","governmental-immunity"],"outcomeNorm":"mixed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=131034","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/new-live-evangelistic-center-appellantcross-respondent-v-city-of-st-louis-105737","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"real-estate","label":"Real Estate","href":"/practice-areas/real-estate","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: property-real-estate"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/real-estate"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: civil-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
