A Greene County Judge has ruled in favor of a developer trying to block an election regarding property across Sequiota Park and whether it could be rezoned for an apartment complex and business development.
Judge David Jones’ rule stopped a planned election on August 3 and found a zoning referendum process outline in City charter clashes with state law and in turn violates U.S. and Missouri constitutions.
A lawyer for the developer says a petition, which garnered more than 2,700 signatures, should be invalid because it didn’t explicitly ask for a vote.
