Can Florida’S Legislative Standard Of Review For Small-Scale Land Use Amendments Be Justified?, Bernard R. Appleman
Can Florida’S Legislative Standard Of Review For Small-Scale Land Use Amendments Be Justified?, Bernard R. Appleman
ExpressO
This article examines the legal justification and practical application of recent Florida Supreme Court decisions classifying all comprehensive plan amendments as legislative decisions and all other zoning changes as quasi-judicial. The author outlines historical trends and concerns relating to the appropriate standard of judicial review for zoning actions, followed by a review of the evolution of the statutes and case law in Florida.

It also identifies inconsistencies in Florida case law and inequities in local government processes for reviewing …

Out Of Bounds: San Francisco's Homeless Policies, Alexandra Flynn
Out Of Bounds: San Francisco's Homeless Policies, Alexandra Flynn
ExpressO
Homelessness, both a legal and public policy issue, has dominated the City of San Francisco government agenda for over fifteen years. Despite the front-and-center nature of homelessness, the policies enacted have done little to reduce the count.

This first section includes an examination of the causes of homelessness, the physical alienation of homeless persons through “quality of life” laws, and recent policy initiatives used to social exclude the bulk of homeless persons by limiting …
