Description

The only comprehensive treatise on Ohio land use controls and related planning and economic development issues, this title offers a step-by-step guide to Ohio's permit process as well as in-depth analysis of state legislation governing planning, economic development, and affordable housing. It emphasizes Ohio statutes and caselaw, along with significant decisions from other state and federal courts. The Ohio Supreme Court cited this title as persuasive authority when it reversed a prior decision based on analysis provided in this handbook; and the U.S. Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals also recently cited this work.
