Housing--Mobile Homes--Some Legal Questions, Mark Summers, Frederick D. Fahrenz, David C. Shepler
Housing--Mobile Homes--Some Legal Questions, Mark Summers, Frederick D. Fahrenz, David C. Shepler
West Virginia Law Review
Because of the increasing use of the mobile home as a form of housing, practitioners will be handling an ever-increasing number of cases dealing with the problems of the mobile home resident. The four major areas of investigation of mobile home law dealt with here are taxation, zoning, warranties, and fixtures. The purpose of the article is not to reveal any particular deficiencies in West Virginia's mobile home law, but rather to investigate and synthesize the law in a comprehensive review. While there are certain areas where the need for reform has been suggested, compiling the law as a research …
The Interrelationship Between Excusionary Subdivision Control - A Second Look, Roger A. Cunningham
The Interrelationship Between Excusionary Subdivision Control - A Second Look, Roger A. Cunningham
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
The thesis of this article is that the conclusion set out above is both oversimplified and inaccurate. Contrary to the author's contention in his Journal article, there are "viable distinctions between zoning and subdivision control," and consequently the major exclusionary techniques available to suburban communities through "zoning" are simply not available in connection with "subdivision control." Dramatic attempts at racial exclusion through subdivision control are likely to be infrequent. Although subdivision regulations, like zoning ordinances and building codes, require expenditures by land developers which increase the cost of housing and thus tend to exclude the poor, the effect of subdivision …
Exclusionary Zoning: A Wrong In Search Of A Remedy, Leonard S. Rubinowitz
Exclusionary Zoning: A Wrong In Search Of A Remedy, Leonard S. Rubinowitz
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
This article discusses affirmative approaches to providing effective relief in two types of exclusionary zoning cases: (1) remedies specific to a particular proposed development or a given site and (2) regional remedies, which provide a generalized framework for meeting what courts are increasingly identifying as a regional problem: the need for decent housing for all families. In the first instance (the "single-site" case) a court would remove obstacles in order to facilitate development of low- and moderate- income housing on a particular suburban site. In the second case (the regional approach) a court would specify the obligation of the municipalities …

The Interrelationship Between Exclusionary Zoning And Exclusionary Subdivision Control, Robert E. Hirshon
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
This article will examine both exclusionary zoning and subdivision control with a view toward analyzing the assumptions common to both types of laws. The operative differences between exclusionary zoning and subdivision control may be non-existent. If this is truly the case, the judicial response to each practice should be the same.

Evolving Judicial Attitudes Toward Local Government Land Use Control, Terrance Sandalow
Evolving Judicial Attitudes Toward Local Government Land Use Control, Terrance Sandalow
Articles
The year 1967 begins the second half-century of zoning in the United States. The first comprehensive zoning ordinance was adopted by New York City in 1916. In the fifty years that have elapsed, zoning has become, notwithstanding a growing disenchantment with it on the part of planners, the most widely employed technique of land use control in the United States. At the present time only Houston, of all the major cities in the United States, lacks a zoning ordinance. And, though I have not obtained precise figures, we are all familiar with the increasingly large per centage of small municipalities, …

Change Of Neighborhood In Nuisance Cases, Martin A. Levitin
Change Of Neighborhood In Nuisance Cases, Martin A. Levitin
Cleveland State Law Review
The law of nuisance lies somewhere between the legal principle that each person may use his property as he sees fit, and the contradictory principle that he must so use it as not to injure the property or rights of his neighbors. With the growth of our nation, and its changing balance between rural and urban populations, the established principles of tort law as applied to nuisances evidence the "elastic adaptability" of the common law.

Covenants - Effect Of Change Of Conditions On Equitable Restrictions, Dan K. Cook
Covenants - Effect Of Change Of Conditions On Equitable Restrictions, Dan K. Cook
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff was a lot owner in a residential district consisting of twenty-three blocks. Each lot in the district was subject to a restriction, imposed by the grantor, which limited the use of the lots to residence purposes. Subsequent to the imposition of this restriction, numerous oil and gas wells had been drilled in the territory surrounding the district, so that the lots in the district had depreciated in value approximately thirty-five to fifty per cent. By ordinance, the use zoning area which included the district had been changed from a residence use to an oil and gas use. At the …
