We church leaders face this all the time, as folks want to take our tax exemptions away, or make it cost-prohibitive to build new churches because of greedy zoning rules.

Good point, but even as a non-profit organization when it comes to land especially for the expansion of a school that really makes no difference or if for some kind of sity wide expansion, he wiuth the most $$ wins. It may be challenged for appraisal. If you do, then have a certified appraiser to give a true estimate as it is usually much different than the County.
