Attorney and city leader discuss potential impacts of St. George lawsuitBATON ROUGE - There are still plenty of unanswered questions about what could happen if and when a judge officially decides when St. George became a city and the financial implications attached to it.
The lawsuit filed by design firm LRK LLC came after the city of St. George revamped their zoning ordinances earlier this year, changing the number of zoning classifications on properties in the city.
Kleinpeter says they were aware that the city of St. George's incorporation date never being established under state law.
Moak says state laws have changed since then, and St. George has a bigger commercial landscape and tax base than Central.
Which is not only an important date for St. George, but the city of Baton Rouge and East Baton Rouge Parish, as Kleinpeter says it has a lot of ramifications.
