Ruling by the Court
On December 21, the San Miguel County District Court granted the appeal (a.k.a. lawsuit) against the County’s decision to rezone Diamond Ridge. To win an appeal of a Board of County Commissioner’s decision is very significant and deals a big setback to the County-Town plans to develop the parcels.
