No(s). A109510 (Cal. App. 1st Dist. Feb 27, 2006)

A court reverses the dismissal of property owners' complaint challenging a city's creation of a fire suppression assessment district. The lower court determined that the owners failed to exhaust their administrative remedies as provided in a local ordinance. The ordinance, however, lacks any procedural mechanisms for the submission, evaluation, and resolution of the appeal.
