CITIZEN LAWSUIT: Filed March 30, 2017

This legal challenge about the proposed development project at Lion's Back is at the fourth stage of review concerning procedures regarding the Municipal Land Use Code:

1) The City of Moab Council should have conducted a public review process, because the proposed development was revised in a major way; the impact of this project doubled.
2) This first complaint by citizens should have been heard by the Appeal Authority for the City of Moab. This did not occur.
3) After the complaint to the Appeal Authority was bypassed, the complaint was argued in Utah's 7th District Court.
4) The District Court denied the the appeal concerning due process with the citizens and now the citizens will petition the Utah Apellate Court to review the case with fresh eyes.
