ANDREW HIRT v. METROPOLITAN BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS OF THE METROPOLITAN GOVERNMENT OF NASHVILLE AND DAVIDSON COUNTY

Syllabus

This is the second appeal of this case involving a local zoning board's denial of Appellants' permit to replace a static billboard with an LED digital billboard. The zoning board denied Appellants' initial application for a permit, and the chancery court affirmed. In the first appeal, this Court vacated the chancery court's order on its holding that the chancery court lacked subject-matter jurisdiction. Our holding rendered the board's decision a final judgment. The instant appeal arises from Appellants' second application for an LED digital billboard on its property. The board again denied the application, and Appellants appealed to the chancery court. The chancery court held, inter alia, that Appellants' second application was barred as res judicata. Discerning no error, we affirm.
