A grassroots, informal group of residents, neighbors and community associations fighting the irresponsible development of a Royal Farms gas station at 5901 Harford Rd. Please help fund our appeal's legal fees: https://gofund.me/118a7858
Our 3 arguments are the BMZA:
1. Did not approve the conditional use, as they did not approve a site plan.
2. Failed to consider the adverse effect of the gas station, as required by Schultz v. Pritts.
3. Committed legal error in deciding the case on the prior B-3 zoning in 4 major ways.

When might a possible win be? John Murphy has finished the appeal brief, due Sept 11th. He expects the case to be argued in spring '26, with a decision 30 days after arguments take place. That means plenty of time to fundraise the rest of the appeal's fees, but also a long time to wait and watch.

No Glenmore realignment, no environmental safety setback from homes or the library, less library parking, and more points of conflict between cars and pedestrians/cyclists on our hard-won safer sidewalks and dedicated bike lanes. This would be a lose lose lose all around for our community.
