Property — shoreland zoning — area variances
The Hamilton Living Trust appeals an order entered by the circuit court upon certiorari review of a Walworth County Board of Adjustment decision. The Board denied Hamilton’s petition for an area variance to construct a garage within the shoreyard setback. Hamilton argues that the Board proceeded on an incorrect theory of law and that the denial was arbitrary, oppressive and unreasonable and represented its will rather than its judgment. Because of the highly deferential standard of review employed on certiorari review, we affirm the Board’s decision. This opinion will not be published.
