Land Use Case
• Citizens v. San Luis Obispo - Initiative trumps
Aeronautics Act, ALUC
– The Second Appellate Court issued a decision on
August 4, 2009 invalidating a January 31, 2008 writ
of mandate from the San Luis Obispo trial court to
permit a 131-acre mixed use development near the
San Luis Obispo airport.
– This decision has significant negative implications
on the State Aeronautics Act and the powers and
duties of Airport Land Use Commissions.
