NIMBY: Opponents of LG headquarters on Palisades to continue fight in apellette court | NJ.com

NIMBY ALERT:  WE BOUGHT OUR APARTMENT BECAUSE THIS WAS NOT THE VIEW FROM IT!


Opponents of LG headquarters on Palisades to continue fight in appellate court | NJ.com:

ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS — Scenic Hudson and the New Jersey State Federation of Women's Clubs plan to continue fighting a plan to build a 143-foot building above the Palisades.
The groups said Tuesday they would file an appeal to a judge's decision to uphold variances allowing LG Electronics to build a new headquarters on Sylvan Avenue.
The appeal says the Englewood Cliffs Zoning Board of Adjustment didn't have the authority to allow LG to exceed the town's 35-foot height limit.
Scenic Hudson and the State Federation of Women's Clubs are part of the Protect the Palisades Coalition, a group of organizations and individuals opposed to LG's plans. The coalition believes the building, which would rise 80 feet above the tree line, would mar the view of the Palisades.
