ROBERTS, Justice
(concurring).
I agree that the ordinance involved here is unconstitutional and that appellee is entitled to a building permit upon compliance with “all administrative requirements [e. g. subdivision controls, building codes, etc.] of the zoning ordinance in effect on the date of the original application” which are not unconstitutional. Casey v. Zoning Hearing Board, 459 Pa. 219, 230, 328 A.2d 464, 469-70 (1974). An extensive and detailed statement of the compelling reasons for this result is contained in the opinion in support of affirmance by Judge Mencer (joined by Judges Crumlish and Kramer) in the Commonwealth Court. Willistown Township v. Chesterdale Farms, Inc., 7 Pa.Cmwlth. 453, 456, 300 A.2d 107, 109 (1973).
