ITEM TITLE ORDINANCE �8 �� Adding New Section 1. 04 . 060 to the Chula
Vista Municipal Code Relating to the Time for Seeking Review
of Administrative Decisions
SUBM[TTED BY City Attorney
ITEM EXPLANATION (4/STH' S VOTE REQUIRED YES_ NO x )
The City of Chula Vista has never adopted a statute of limitations
for judicial review of administrative decisions . This could lead to
some chaotic results where a decision is challenged a year or more
after it is made and the City or private parties have, in the mean-
time , detrimentally relied upon the decision. The California Code
of Civil Procedure (�1094 .6) specifically permits the City to adopt
a ninety day statute of limitations on judicial review of administrative
decisions . This would permit an aggrieved party to contest any decision
which the City makes but, at the same time, would place a reasonable
time limit on the aggrieved party and permit the City and any other
interested parties to go ahead with any plans they might have which
would depend upon the decision after a ninety day period.
