TERRE HAUTE, Ind. – A decision to not allow an adult business on the northeast side of town is being appealed.

Mike Bickers has filed a complaint in regards to the decision by the Terre Haute Board of Zoning Appeals to deny his request that would allow for his proposed adult-oriented business.

A Verified Petition for Judicial Review was filed by Bickers asking for the court to remand the case to the Board for further consideration.

The Board denied Bickers’ special use request for the property at 3295 N. Fruitridge Avenue in Terre Haute for an adult business.

City code outlines standards for the location of adult businesses and the board said all of the requirements were met.
