The U.S. Constitution guarantees
freedom of expression, freedom of religion, and the right to bear arms.
Nevertheless, land uses that are dependent on these guarantees continue to
court controversy in many communities. Whether sparked by chronic concerns over
threats to community character or more acute debates related to public safety,
many planners find themselves on the front lines of battles over contentious
uses that have some claim on being constitutionally protected.
Drawing from practice-based experience
and lessons from case law, Adam Simon and Dan Bolin from Ancel, Glink will
discuss local regulatory issues related to strip clubs, churches, guns shops
and other land uses entangled with rights flowing from the First and Second
Amendments of the U.S. Constitution.
