Questione giuridica chiave
Whether a building permit may be revoked shortly after issuance under § 22 VRG.
Decisione estratta
Yes. Because construction had not yet begun and the revocation followed soon after notice of the permit, only limited public-interest reasons were required; the permit could be withdrawn despite reliance on project planning work.
Motivazione estratta
Building permits follow a prior review procedure, so revocability is generally restricted. Before construction begins, however, and especially when revocation occurs shortly after issuance, the requirements for the public interest supporting revocation are not demanding. Project planning expenditures alone did not materially alter the reliance position.
