ZBA Hearings on Coastal Alliance Standing Scheduled to Begin September 11

The Saugatuck Township Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA) will begin hearings next month to determine whether the Coastal Alliance has standing to challenge the permits the Township granted in 2017 for the proposed marina. Lawyers from the Township, NorthShore of Saugatuck, and the Coastal Alliance have been meeting to discuss the process the ZBA will follow for their deliberations as well as evidence to be considered. Attorneys for the Coastal Alliance currently expect there to be multiple ZBA hearings to consider standing, the first of which is scheduled for Monday, Sept. 11. We’ll share additional dates and details once we have them.
