Description
Bruce Ayers, Jr., Judith Ayers and People for Autistic Citizens, Inc. [hereinafter referred to collectively as Group Home] appeal the trial courts January 13, 1987 order granting the Porter County Plan Commissions [Plan Commission] Petition for Permanent Injunction. After a summary judgment proceeding, the trial court granted an injunction to the Plan Commission enjoining Group Home from operating an adult group home in a single family residential area. The Plan Commission contended and the trial court agreed that, although the ordinance contained no special exception for group homes, it was "reasonable" to require Group Home to qualify for a general special exception under language requiring such exceptions for dormatories, nursing homes, sororities, fraternities and orphanages. Group Home insisted in the trial court and claims on appeal that group homes created under IND. CODE § 16-13-21-1 to -18 are a permitted use in single family residential areas and are not required to seek and obtain permission under a special exception.
