The owners of a home in the Courts section of Stone Harbor have sued the borough over an ordinance that restricts property owners in that section from increasing the size of their homes.

Kara and Kyle Sweet, who this summer were denied variances to build a 1,300-square-foot, two-story home on Weber Court, are challenging the decision, saying the height restriction in the ordinance was invalid and calling the borough’s actions “an improper attempt by the borough to create an historic preservation district.”
