Given that the state law arose from extremely similar 'local' circumstances, it will be interesting to watch... the outcome of the first lawsuit.


I'm guessing that Morse's lawyers were confident that they would prevail on another lawsuit, right up until that is...he had to write that $40M check.
Nope, it’s not just an opinion. The author of the bill, Rep. Hage, confirmed that it is not the intent of the law to affect voluntarily agreed upon restrictions and that the deed restrictions every one signed (except perhaps those on the historic side) fall into that category. He intends to introduce language more specifically addressing that distinction in the next session.
