L&G WINS CEQA LAWSUIT

The Court granted a writ of mandate holding that the environmental (Mitigated Negative Declaration -MND) approved by Los Angeles City officials for a highrise commercial project adjacent to 1-2 story commercial buildings was inadequate and ordered an EIR.

L&G filed the lawsuit on behalf of a coalition of business and property owners on the City’s westside after City officials approved the MND without requiring an EIR to evaluate traffic, noise and other significant likely impacts on surrounding properties.

Kristina Kropp and Rob Glushon were the lead attorneys.
