Garden Grove Downtown Business Assn. v. City fo Garden Grove
In January 2007, the Garden Grove Downtown Business Association (the Petitioner) filed a petition for a writ of administrative mandate challenging the approval by the City of Garden Grove (the City) and the Garden Grove Agency for Community Development (the Agency) of a condominium project (the Project) to be built on an existing parking lot in the historical downtown area of the City (the Site). The petition alleged that the approval process was unlawful because: (1) the City and the Agency failed to include the Garden Grove Parking and Main Street Commission (the Parking Commission) in the decision-making process for the Project; (2) the City abused its discretion by determining that the parking lot was no longer needed for parking; and (3) the City and the Agency abused their discretion in determining that the Project would eliminate blight.
