Gibson Court emergency access gate dispute

Summary

The condo association removed a gate required by its 1987 zoning approval, and a Prospect Court neighbor objected. The solicitor questioned whether the board can even amend an old special use permit, so the association will rethink its options — possibly reinstalling a latch-only gate — before the June hearing.
