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 quasi adjudicative

becomes final.
