109 North, LLC v. Planning Com'n of Town of New Milford

Opinion

GRUENDEL, J.

This appeal concerns the application of the automatic approval doctrine. The plaintiff, 109 North, LLC, appeals from the summary judgment on its mandamus action rendered by the trial court in favor of the defendant, the planning commission of the town of New Milford. The plaintiffs principal claim is that the court improperly concluded that the defendant acted on the plaintiffs subdivision application within the time limits prescribed by General Statutes §§ 8-26 and 8-26d. We agree and, accordingly, reverse the judgment of the trial court.

The facts largely are undisputed.…
