Coastal Development filed for a small-scale amendment to the City's comprehensive plan for development of an office complex at Highway A1A and St. Augustine Boulevard. The proposed amendment was opposed by adjoining residential property owners, and the local Planning Commission eventually denied the request on a 3-to-2 vote. The City Council backed the Commission. Coastal Development sued, and the trial court ordered the City to grant the amendment. On appeal, the First District Court reversed on grounds that the trial court had used the wrong standard of review.
