A federal judge ruled that the Town of Castle Rock cannot enforce a land use code against The Rock evangelical church for providing temporary shelter for unhoused people on its property.
U.S. District Court Judge Daniel D. Domenico handed down the ruling on Friday. The decision granted the church a preliminary injunction.
The church sued Castle Rock earlier this year after it received a “letter of determination” from the zoning manager stating that the church was violating zoning regulations and that it couldn’t park RVs used as residences on site.
If I know anything about towns named Castle Rock, that church is probably all vampires.
As someone with a wall full of S.K. novels, I appreciate this reference.
I’m not sure why people are downvoting you on this comment. I got the Stephen King reference too.
Maybe they think I’m insulting religion? I don’t know.
You’re not?! Let me change that to a downvote.
Does it help that Stephen King has called religion a dangerous tool?

Don’t try to confuse me with your FACTS and LOGIC!
Probably because reference jokes don’t add anything useful to the discussion.
I think Stephen King’s Castle Rock is in Maine though.
good church
signed, an atheist
I am with you. Every once in a while I have to admit that one here or there is doing good work.
You can tell when a church is actually doing good work because right-wingers will try to stop them
Also poised to elect Boebert as their representative! Having an incorrect moral position counter at 2 seems way too low.
Oh, shit, I didn’t realize that she was the rep for Castle Rock. I’m sorry.
She’s not currently. She was in a mountain district to the west but they moved her to the Douglas county district south of Denver that’s even more red. I’m happy to be able to vote against her this year!
unhoused
We did it! We’ve solved the homeless crisis!
