Opinion

Menchine, J.,

delivered the opinion of the Court.

Piecemeal rezoning of land from commercial to residential use is of signal rarity. This is such a case.

The “blessings and the burdens” of Village of Euclid v. Ambler Realty Co. 1 came late to Kent County. Original zoning came in 1960; comprehensive rezoning in 1969. The subject appeal attacks the validity of piecemeal reclassification in 1972 of lands zoned B-l (Neighborhood Business) to R-l (Single Family Residential).

We reproduce partially Map No. 7 of the 1969 comprehensive rezoning of the area, whereby the subject land (shown cross-hatched) had been placed — for the first time — in a commercial zoning classification.
