City of Foley v. McLeod

Supreme Court of Alabama

Decided January 16, 1998No. 1961179PublishedCited by 14 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

The City of Foley (the City) sought to enforce nonconforming-use provisions of its zoning ordinance to prevent the replacement of mobile homes in a nonconforming mobile home park. The circuit court entered a summary judgment in favor of the mobile home park owners. The City appealed. The issues before this Court are (1) whether the City's zoning ordinance may prevent the replacement of mobile homes in mobile home parks that are preexisting nonconforming uses, and (2) if the ordinance bars such replacement, whether the City should be estopped from enforcing the ordinance.
