If a person wishes to file a legal challenge to any decision made by the City Council, you may be limited to raising
only those issues which you or someone else raised during the meeting, or in a written communication received by
the City Clerk prior to or during the meeting. In addition, a legal challenge may be limited or barred where the
interested party has not sought and exhausted all available administrative remedies. The time limit to commence
any legal challenge may be subject to strict timing requirements, and failure to comply with applicable timing
requirements may result in a legal challenge being barred. Any lawsuit or legal challenge to any quasi -adjudicative
decision made by the City Council is governed by Section 1094.6 of the Code of Civil Procedure, unless a shorter
limitation period is specified by any other provision. Under Section 1094.6, any lawsuit or legal challenge to any

which such decision becomes final.
