In Re McDonald's Corp.
Supreme Court of Vermont
Decided December 6, 1985No. 82-516PublishedCited by 35 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtHayes, J.
Plaintiff McDonald’s Corporation (McDonald’s) appeals from a declaratory ruling by the Vermont Environmental Board (Board) which determined that McDonald’s was required to obtain an Act 250 land use permit, pursuant to 10 V.S.A. § 6081(a), for a proposed restaurant to be located at 195 Woodstock Avenue in the City of Rutland.
McDonald’s contends 1) that the Board was estopped from ruling that an Act 250 permit was required, and 2) that it had a vested interest in construction of the project at the time the petition for declaratory ruling was filed. We disagree and affirm.
