Norfolk County Circuit Court February 6, 2015, Case No. (Civil) CL14-4778 (Committee of ex rel. Taylor v. City of Norfolk)

By Judge Junius P. Fulton, III

The current litigation raises concerns regarding the right of citizens to a referendum and the City of Norfolk’s power to establish zoning classifications. In the balance rests the ultimate disposition of what is widely considered to be a historically significant property dating back to the earliest years of the City, Talbot Hall.
