Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Pottawattamie County, Kathleen A. Kilnoski, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Mullins, P.J., Bower, J., and Vogel, S.J. Opinion by Bower, J. (8 pages)
Vernon and Mary Hilkemann appeal a district court ruling relating to zoning decisions by the City of Carter Lake City Council, Planning Board, and Board of Adjustment. The Hilkemanns contest the district court’s finding the relation-back doctrine did not apply and the court’s authority to remand annulled variances to the board of adjustment for further proceedings. OPINION HOLDS: We find the relation-back doctrine does not apply here and the court has the authority to order a remand for further proceedings.
