California Court of Appeal
Building Indus. Assoc. of Cent. California v. City of Patterson, F054785
Trial court ruling that defendant-city's increase of affordable housing in-lieu fee was reasonably justified is reversed where there was insufficient evidence that demonstrated or implied the increased fee was reasonably related to the need for affordable housing associated with the development project, and thus, was not reasonably justified as required by the development agreement.
