Gaea update
Last fall we followed a zoning battle in Leavenworth County, Kansas. Local conservatives had campaigned to shut down the Gaea Retreat Center, whose events often feature nudism and paganism. The county commission voted in October not to renew the Center's special-use permit, and Gaea's owners took legal action to fight the ruling. More background here. The Gaea Center website now reports that they've reached an agreement with the county commission which grants them a perpetual Special Use Permit. Congratulations to Gaea, and three cheers for the First Amendment!
