Episode 31: The Case for Zoning

This episode is all about making the case for zoning.  Is zoning constitutional?  Is it a taking?  Does it violate the 14th Amendment?  (That’s the Due Process clause) What about simple Use Regulations?  What about legislative acts?  These are the things that U.S. Supreme Court had to debate.  One thing is for sure though.  When in doubt, APPEAL!
