Synopsis

Key Biscayne Park Acquisitions LLC appealed a quasi-judicial decision by the Village of Key Biscayne, challenging a zoning or land use matter. The appellate court denied the appeal, finding that the Village complied with due process requirements and that the petitioner failed to preserve certain issues for appeal.


Holding

The court denied the appeal, holding that the Village satisfied due process requirements by providing notice of the hearing and an opportunity to be heard, and that the petitioner failed to properly preserve issues for appellate review by not making timely, specific, contemporaneous objections at the administrative level.
