Kangaroo Zoning

In Spring Valley

When a proposal fails to pass, the Spring Valley ZBA brings it up again for “reconsideration”. If there are still not enough votes to pass it, they continue to bring it up until the members who oppose are absent. Then a “substitute” member can give the YES vote to arrive at the predetermined outcome. Sometimes they have to extend the time for “reconsideration” if the dissenting members have not been absent.
