Whose lawsuit do I support against the possible "Big Box" location at Northcross

Three organizations (Crestview, Allandale, and RG4N) have taken up funds to support two lawsuits (Allandale and RG4N) against "Big Box" at northcross. Funds collected by Crestview are donated to Allandale's lawsuit fund.

The big differences between Allandale and RG4N is
1) RG4N's lawsuit is broader (as described below) and
2) RG4N is proposing an alternate view for developing northcross (or a part of the northcross property) to an urban mixed use center.

Please go to their websites for more and better clarification.

Tom Linehan, president of Allandale, wrote a very good article about the differences between RG4N and Allandale's lawsuits. Here is his article:

"Who do I give my money to, the Allandale Neighborhood Association or RG4N? The answer is CONTRIBUTE. Either way, your money will go to funding the lawsuit. HOWEVER, the monies are not pooled together. Each organization has and is responsible for their respective legal costs.
By way of background, Allandale and RG4N both filed lawsuits against the City over approval of the site plan at Northcross. Because the two lawsuits overlap they were combined. Allandale is seeking a motion of summary judgment regarding whether the site plan violated city code which requires a public review process because of the inclusion of a garden center. If the judge rules that indeed the garden center is a conditional use and should have triggered a conditional-use-permit process, Lincoln will have to start over resubmitting their site plan that will be subject to the requirements of the new Big Box ordinance.

RG4N's lawsuit is broader in scope. In addition to the conditional use issue, their suit challenges the removal of trees on the property, runoff, and safety issues related to the increase in traffic generated from the development.

Both groups are working hard to raise funds to support the lawsuit even though the monies collected stay with the respective organization. Nevertheless, we are single-minded in our objective to preserving the character and safety of the neighborhood by keeping a 192,000 sq ft Supercenter out. The court hearing is scheduled for November 13. Make plans to attend.
