Duncan Forsyth and Jennifer Pedevillano successfully defended a Local Health District in an appeal by the homeowners. The Local Health District reviewed the homeowners’ application to perform certain improvements to a residential property and concluded the homeowners’ proposed improvements did not meet the requirements of the Public Health Code. The homeowners appealed to the State of Connecticut Department of Public Health. Attorney Pedevillano represented the Local Health District at a hearing in front of a Public Health Hearing Officer. The Hearing Officer agreed with the Local Health District’s denial of the application and found the requirements of the Public Health Code could not be met. The Hearing Officer dismissed the homeowners’ appeal.
