excuse me the last case on for argument is smarten versus town of to services to uphold the constitution that's mainly why i'm here today as a builder i've been economically devastated by the actions of the defendants and as much as i'm scared by their behavior i'm very proud that i'm able to ask questions sure you have you sought any kind of approval from the conservation commission about building on the property because of this dispute about the official map that the wetlands and whether you're actually on wetlands or not yes your honor i asked them to give me  into play because it's not a building lots you can't build anything on it i'm sorry isn't that wetland problem still an unresolved problem with respect to your building la well if it is a building lot it is an unresolved problem but currently it's not a building lot at all and the court relied upon had the district court hung and had on an affidavit by the assistant planner where he says in his affidavit that he suggested i investigate he regards some division for this property a ludicrous idea and it was it was concocted by a shrewd town attorney who knew i met a demand of the town a notice of the man and then i brought it to the state it was denied for the same reason six exact same case on williamson the exact same affidavit was used in that case through the town attorney where this system planner was going to be an issue no your honor first of all to the lot the lot was created with a paper road that shows two hundred feet of furniture and it was taxed as a tax out of thirty two hundred dollars a year it was made after my denial of my variance that they reduced the taxes to twelve hundred a year because they also thought now well now it's no longer a building lot but at the time the paper road is what i believe to be my furniture in the normally when you wouldn't sign approve it if he didn't see that i met all the aspects of and he then retires unfortunately and this all comes into play so he and not for i don't want to use e this is sort of a  driven fight with the town and not my ego i'm economically devastated by but their egos saying basically it started with the with the with the help their strict when they they said you see in the even though they're no longer defense in the case they said well we want you to we think you're engineer lied about his findings on the property and that would do it rolled over to we're going to show you just just now you're being told to investigate the possibility of it where a lot variance but that wouldn't cure the two hundred foot problem you know when you're on it right there right that's correct and i know there's a t farming or it has been the prescribed use of the property as a building lot on the second prong my understanding is that the supreme court has just undertaken to review the second problem they just accepted a grant to review in a case i don't know that whether they're going to continue to require that the second prong seeking compensation be met but that likely wouldn't be argued till next fall and not heard until next heir decide until next year sometime i don't think this case would settle any time so we had i twenty two officer settlements not one of them all rejected without a counter in the superior court case the judge asked us to have binding a non binding mediation conference with the learners judge they refused you've made settlement offers and they've twenty two and everything you can think of this is my livelihood and i've been just to be clear in following up on what judge carney was asking and when i asked earlier you have gone through an inverse condemnation proceeding seeking compensation and you have been denied at the first stage not only administratively but also connecticut court of appeals as it's so i actually didn't see that in the record i saw that there you had filed a suit i thought in response to that denial of permits but i and that you that had been dismissed for failure to exhaust it wasn't it wasn't it was also in and you were seeking compensation so you were seeking a condom yes ok and as i explained i didn't appeal needed to be honest i got into the money to follow the appeal and records and i said whose fault is that is it my fault i have no records martin thank you for coming out here today thank you your honor i really appreciate it we will reserve decision in this case but we'll try to get you something fairly soon thanks very much
