The plaintiffs' petition for certification to appeal from the Appellate Court, 200 Conn. App. 307, 240 A.3d 709 (2020), is granted, limited to the following issues:
"1. Did the Appellate Court correctly conclude that, under St. Joseph's High School, Inc. v. Planning & Zoning Commission, 176 Conn. App. 570, 170 A.3d 73 (2017), a zoning commission can deny a special use permit application based on noncompliance with the general standards enumerated in the zoning regulations despite full compliance with the technical requirements?
"2. If the answer to the first question is in the affirmative, did the Appellate Court correctly determine that substantial evidence supported the decision of the defendant planning and zoning commission to deny the plaintiffs' special use permit application?''
