CA-AG v. City of Poway

Pending

City of Poway allegedly violated the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) by failing to respond appropriately to new and substantial discoveries of multiple distinct burials of ancestral human remains and significant cultural resources during the construction of a luxury housing project. The city appears to have failed to reopen review of the project before taking recent action to allow construction at the site, failed to adequately implement mitigation measures adopted in the 2003 EIR, and failed to comply with its own city policies applicable to the discovery of ancestral human remains.
