355 S.E.2d 664
44378.Supreme Court of Georgia.
DECIDED MAY 19, 1987.
WELTNER, Justice.
1. The failure of a property owner to challenge within thirty days the rezoning of his property from a higher density use to a lower density use (sometimes called “downzoning”) precludes him from judicial relief. Village Centers v. DeKalb County, 248 Ga. 177
(281 S.E.2d 522) (1981). Wilson v. City of Snellville, 256 Ga. 734 (352 S.E.2d 759) (1987).
2. This holding is without prejudice to Johnson’s pending rezoning application.
Judgment reversed. All the Justices concur.
