    341 S.E.2d 432 (Ga. 1986)   Cited 5 times

    Thus, the decision of the planning agency itself now is the final agency decision to which deference must be made during judicial review. DeKalb County v. Metro Ambulance Services, Inc., 253 Ga. 561, 562 (1) (a) ( 322 S.E.2d 881) (1984); Strickland v. Douglas County, 246 Ga. 640, 642 ( 272 S.E.2d 340) (1980); Bentley v. Chastain, 242 Ga. 348, 349 (1) ( 249 S.E.2d 38) (1978). The review board acted beyond its powers of administrative review of contested cases under OCGA § 31-6-44 (d) by deeming the "County Deficit Rule" of the planning agency inapplicable in a controversy to which it applied by its express terms, or by applying the rule to part of the county instead of to the entire county.

    344 S.E.2d 463 (Ga. Ct. App. 1986)   Cited 2 times

    Applying Dogwood to the case before us, we look first to the agency's interpretation of the CSR. Its interpretation is due judicial deference. See DeKalb County v. Metro Ambulance Svcs., 253 Ga. 561, 562 (1) (a) ( 322 S.E.2d 881) (1984); Strickland v. Douglas County, 246 Ga. 640, 642 (1) ( 272 S.E.2d 340) (1980). Its decision on consideration of the application clearly shows that it applied all of the relevant criteria, including the CSR, and that it gave St. Joseph's ample breadth and opportunity to demonstrate a need which would overcome the factual determinations expressed in the CSR. It set out its findings of fact and concluded that a need for additional open heart surgery service in Savannah had not been demonstrated.
