Synagogue Zoning

Hi,

We have been discussing synagogue construction.

If a Jew is building near a synagogue in a way that his own building will deleteriously affect use of the synagogue - such as by blocking sunlight coming into the windows - the Jewish community is authorized to stop him.

(Shulchan Aruch, Orach Chaim 150:4)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
