City of Woodinville v. Northshore United Church of Christ, et al.

Jul 16, 2009

OUTCOME: Decided in favor of Defendants

The City violated the Church's constitutional rights under article I, section 11 when it refused to process the Church's permit application based on a total moratorium on temporary use permits in the a ... rea. Rather than seeking to impose reasonable conditions on the Church's project to protect the safety and peace of the neighborhood, the City categorically prevented the Church from exercising what the City concedes is religious practice. WA State Supreme Court therefore reversed the Court of Appeals.
