AC41601 - Farmington-Girard, LLC v. Planning & Zoning Commission of the City of Hartford, The Pamela Corporation et al. v. Planning & Zoning Commission of the City of Hartford ("The plaintiff Farmington-Girard, LLC, appeals from the judgments of the trial court, rendered after a trial to the court, dismissing the plaintiff's four consolidated appeals that challenged text amendments to the Hartford Zoning Regulations (regulations) and zoning map changes made by the defendant, the Planning and Zoning Commission of the City of Hartford (commission), for failure to exhaust its administrative remedies. In this appeal, the plaintiff claims that (1) the trial court improperly concluded that it was required to appeal to the city's Zoning Board of Appeals (board) and, thus, failed to exhaust its administrative remedies, and (2) the defendant is estopped from applying the current regulations to the plaintiff's property. We affirm the judgments of the trial court.")
