Hill District Project Area Committee, Inc. v. Zoning Board of Adjustment

SMITH, Judge.

(J & L), appeals from the September 17, 1990 order of the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County reversing a decision of the Zoning Board of Adjustment of the City of Pittsburgh (Board) that granted use and dimensional variances to J & L for construction of a public parking lot in a residential zone in the City.
