Affordable Housing Coalition of San Diego v. City of San Diego
In December 2007, the San Diego City Council approved the Tourism Marketing District (TMD), which established a 2 percent tax on existing hotel rooms. Revenues collected from the tax are to be used to fund tourism marketing programs within the TMD. Affordable Housing Coalition of San Diego County and Citizens for Responsible Equitable Environmental Development (collectively, Coalition) filed a petition for writ of mandate, alleging that the City of San Diego (City) failed to comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) when it approved the TMD. The trial court rejected the Coalition's argument and denied the petition. Court affirm the judgment.
