Description
We granted review in this case to consider whether Government Code section 66484.3 (all further statutory references are to this code unless otherwise stated), which permits city councils in Orange County to impose development fees to fund construction of major thoroughfares, renders invalid a proposed initiative measure which would prohibit Irvine's city council from imposing a new fee or tax to finance construction of any new transportation corridor, freeway, highway, or other road without first submitting the new fee or tax to a vote of the electorate. As we will explain, we have concluded that the initiative conflicts with section 66484.3. Because it addresses a matter of statewide concern, the statute prevails and the initiative is invalid. We will therefore affirm the judgment of the Court of Appeal.
