Landvatter sought the rezoning to operate a concrete batch plant. Appellants argued the rezoning constituted impermissible spot zoning, violated Equal Protection and Due Process Clauses, and that the Commission abdicated its authority. The appellate court affirmed the Commission's decision, finding the rezoning was fairly debatable and not unconstitutional or an abdication of authority.","primaryTopic":"administrative-law","topicSlugs":["administrative-law","property-real-estate","civil-procedure","standard-of-review"],"outcomeNorm":"unknown","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=165850","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/state-ex-rel-darin-gilley-and-karen-dean-appellants-v-county-commission-o-108527","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"},{"slug":"corporate","label":"Corporate Law","href":"/practice-areas/corporate","score":6,"source":"text","evidence":["text: llc","text: commercial"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/corporate"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
