The City Council reported out May 12 that in closed session it voted to initiate litigation against the San Diego County Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) and its executive officer over the issuance of a certificate of sufficiency related to a proposed special reorganization to incorporate the City of La Jolla.
The city attorney said the motion to initiate litigation on closed session item CS‑3 passed 6–0. Council members Whitburn and Von Wilpert recused themselves from that vote, and Council member Campeo was absent.
