This chapter introduced you to government regulation and protection of various forms of property. One such regulation and protection used by the government is zoning. Using the following Web sites (www.megalaw .com/top/zoning.php would be most useful), find a recent court case in which a zoning law was challenged or where the plaintiff argued that a zoning law resulted in a taking of property. Once you have found such a case, identify the court’s reasoning and the ethical norms underlying that reasoning. Was the particular zoning law found to be unreasonable? Now compare the reasoning of your case to that of Dolan v. City of Tigard. Are the ethical norms different or the same?
