The Ohio Congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses, Inc., sought to construct a church building in a residential area in Lakewood, Ohio. Lakewood’s residential zoning prohibited churches in all residential districts. The Ohio Congregation brought suit challenging the ordinance as unconstitutional and a breach of the freedom to exercise clause of the constitution.
In your initial answer, identify two key challenges to the ordinance and discuss:
What, if any, aspects of the ordinance are unconstitutional?
Are there any possible amendments to the ordinance?
What, if any, zoning issues might the Lakewood residents raise to prohibit the construction of the church?
