ADF lawsuit against Ga. county just latest in long line of zoning abuses against churches
Coweta County denied expansion permit to church even though it met all requirements
NEWNAN, Ga. — Attorneys with the Alliance Defense Fund filed suit Friday against Coweta County on behalf of a church denied an expansion permit even though it met all of the requirements and even though many other churches have had their permits approved. Officials have been silent about their rationale for the denial, which came as the result of a 3-2 county board vote despite a recommendation by the Coweta County planner that the conditional use permit be granted. The case is just the latest in a long line of zoning abuse cases being handled by ADF attorneys. Case Name: All Souls Church of God in Christ v. Coweta County Full news release, quotes, and related media resources available at the following link: http://www.adfmedia.org/News/PRDetail/4621 ADF is a legal alliance of Christian attorneys and like-minded organizations defending the right of people to freely live out their faith.
