Zoning Moratorium Challenged by Builders in Bridgeport
Bridgeport planners face court orders demanding permits for two business zone projects. Bernard and Doris Ginsberg seek immediate building approvals for 1276 East State Street while Julian Brodie aims to start an office building at 26 West State Street.

The vote to accept Brummel's recommendations came after efforts to find a middle ground amid a lengthy debate.
