The court decided that the company should remain a part of the community because it was adding the community. The court used the utilitarian rule to make its decision. The company employed over 300 people from the community. However, the company needs to make a decision to be social responsible company. That may mean relocating so that the people in the community would be satisfied protect them from the rights of community. the court didnt see it that way. The company had to pay a fee to the residents. This in turn might have a negative affect on the community. The community could in turn grow to despise the company and the court system and move out. The mad a ruling that was what they thought was a just decision. The court didnt see an benefit to relocate the plant and understood where the community was coming from but find a just case to relocate the plant. if they the plant had to relocate it would have closed down making the surrounding communities hurt. When a company is close to the actual community that company helps out with the electric bill and water bill so that the surrounding community isnt paying the full amount but a discounted rate.
