Save Arden-Oaks v. Sacramento County
When real party in interest John Saca (Saca) sought to build a two-story, 46-foot-high house, plaintiff Save Arden-Oaks (a neighborhood association) asserted these plans violated zoning ordinances that limited building height to 30 feet. Under these ordinances, plaintiff argued, Saca would have to obtain a use permit or variance to proceed with his project. (See Ex. 4, p. 32)" Litigation ensued, with plaintiff seeking both a writ of mandate and declaratory relief. The trial court agreed with plaintiff's interpretation of the ordinances and granted the requested relief, but it refused to award plaintiff attorney fees.
