In Re Application Of Ellis

In In re Application of Ellis, 277 N.C. 419, 178 S.E.2d 77 (1970), our Supreme Court held that the action of the county commissioners denying an application for a permit to establish a mobile home park as a special exception was arbitrary and capricious where all ordinance requirements were met and stating that the commissioners could not deny a permit "solely because, in their view, a mobile-home park would 'adversely affect the public interest.' The commissioners must also proceed under standards, rules, and regulations, uniformly applicable to all who apply for permits." Id. at 425, 178 S.E.2d at 81.
