California Court of Appeal

In a petition for a writ of mandate against a soon-to-be-dissolved redevelopment agency (RA), alleging the agency failed to provide the low- and moderate-income housing required under the Community Redevelopment Law, Health & Saf. Code section 33000 et seq., AB 26, the trial court's sustianment of the city's demurrer to the petition, on grounds that under AB 26 only a successor agency may be held liable for the preexisting obligations of an RA, is affirmed where under the scheme adopted by the Legislature under AB 26, the liabilities of dissolved RA's are limited to the assets transferred to successor agencies.
