Repetitive petitions

Sec. 13.3. Repetitive petitions.

Where the town council denies a petition of specific amendment to the Zoning Ordinance or zoning map or otherwise rules against any applicant on other than procedural grounds, the town council may not consider another application requesting any or all of the same specific amendments for the same property except:

  • (a) Where ordered to do so by a court of competent jurisdiction;

  • (b) Or where, after six months of the date of such denial or withdrawal, the application is accompanied by an affidavit setting forth facts, to the satisfaction of said town council, showing a substantial change of circumstances justifying a rehearing.
