California Court of Appeal

The trial court properly denied the petition for writ of mandate seeking to set aside the defendant-city's approval of revisions to the housing element of its general plan, and related general plan and zoning amendments, on the ground that an environmental impact report (EIR) for the project is required, where: 1) plaintiff has failed to demonstrate that the decision to refrain from preparing an EIR is unsupported by substantial evidence; and 2) there was no abuse of discretion in defendant-city's approval of the project.
