Grand Beach Ass'n v. Town of Old Orchard Beach

WATHEN, Justice.

Defendant William M. Danton appeals from a judgment of the Superior Court (York County) reversing a building height variance granted to him by the Old Orchard Beach Zoning Board of Appeals (“Board of Appeals”). Defendant first challenges the court’s ruling on the preliminary question of plaintiffs’ standing to obtain judicial review of the action of the Board of Appeals. On the merits, defendant argues that the court erred in finding that the variance was improperly granted. We agree with the decision of the Superior Court and deny the appeal.
