99 Wn.2d 363, SORE v. SNOHOMISH COUNTY (2755 words) |
 | One provides that a county "may" be sued in an adjoining county; and another provides that a party sued "may" move for a change of venue. |
 | Until then we hold that in actions by or against a county a trial court may continue to exercise its discretion under RCW 4.12.030. |
 | To the extent BRIEDABLIK is contrary to this view, it is overruled. |
| 33 Wn. App. 108, COMMUNITY ASS'N v. KITSAP COUNTY (4444 words) |
 | An AD HOC citizens committee appointed by the county commissioners to study the project and prepare a set of criteria for consideration of future industrial siting proposals also approved the project. |
 | This lawsuit was commenced by the Briedablik, Big Valley, Lofall, Edgewater, Surfrest, North End Community Association and others (NECA) against the Tempus Fugit Company, Kitsap County, and others (Tempus Fugit), seeking a writ of certiorari and declaratory relief blocking the project as approved. |
 | NECA's complaint contends that the County's approval of the project lacked the appearance of fairness and violated the provisions of the Planning Enabling Act of the State of Washington (RCW 36.70) and the State Environmental Policy Act of 1971 (RCW 43.21C). |
