BILL · 1991–92 SESSION
SB 5571: Property/damage collection
Expanding the opportunity to collect damages for certain governmental actions affecting real property.
Summary
- A governmental agency can no longer defend against a damage suit regarding the issuance of a permit based on a statute or agency regulation adopted after the filing of an application for a permit. The requirement that an agency knew or should have known that its actions were unlawful or in excess of its authority as a precondition to suit is deleted.
