IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA SIXTH APPELLATE DISTRICT, MONTEREY PENINSULA TAXPAYERS’ ASSOCIATION, et al., Plaintiffs and Appellants, v. BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE MONTEREY PENINSULA WATER MANAGEMENT DISTRICT, et al., Defendants and Respondents,H042484 (Monterey County Super. Ct. No. M123512): ‘The judgment is affirmed.’

ABSTRACT: RE: Monterey Peninsula Taxpayers’ Association et al. v. Board of Directors of the Monterey Peninsula Water Management District et al. H042484
"In this appeal we review a referendum petition challenging an ordinance passed by the Monterey Peninsula Water Management District (the District), which imposed a water supply charge on properties located in the District. The Monterey Peninsula Taxpayers’ Association and three of its officers (collectively, MPTA) sought a writ of mandate and declaratory relief to invalidate the ordinance and place its referendum on the ballot for the next local election. The superior court denied the requested relief. On appeal, MPTA renews its claims that (1) the referendum complied with the Elections Code and therefore should have been submitted to the voters, (2) the ordinance violates the District’s enabling law, and (3) the ordinance violates article XIII D of the California Constitution. We will affirm the judgment."
