The lawsuit brought against the City of Miami by Coconut Grove neighbors of the Grove Gate Home Depot has been settled out of court.  Though not named in the original suit, Home Depot was granted permission to enter the suit in support of the City of Miami.  The lawsuit was filed in October 2006 to contest permits the City issued to Home Depot enabling it to open its Grove Gate store in May 2007.

While the terms of the settlement are confidential, the City, the neighbors, and Home Depot are confident that the resolution best serves the interests of everyone and will bring about tangible and lasting results for the community.
