Twists and Turns - Intervening in Contested Case

On June 13, 2016 SMV leadership was informed that Paradise Park, Inc. timely requested a contested case hearing regarding the Board of Land and Natural Resource's decision to deny the Park's requested time extension and exemption from environmental assessment.

We quickly organized, assessed the situation, and decided that the best way to ensure that the voice of the community is included in this action was to request to intervene and become a party.  We retained legal counsel and on Monday, June 20, 2016 filed a petition requesting to intervene in the case.
