| Court: | Federal Court of Appeals, 7th Cir. |
| Facts: | Zoning prohibits the creation of a group home (for traumatically brain-injured) within 2500 feet of another group home. This means this particular group home can't be where it wants to. |
| Posture: | District court denies city's motion for summary judgment. Grants damages. Appeal. |
| Issue: | Does this zoning violate ADA requirements of reasonable accomodation? |
| Holding: | Yes. Affirmed. |
| Rule: | The city failed to make a reasonable accomodation or to show that doing so would be an unreasonable burden. |
| Reasoning: | The objections trotted out are farcical: they might be violent, there's a flood plain, the driveway is on a hill, etc. |
