Eureka Citizens for Responsible Government v. City of Eureka

In Eureka Citizens for Responsible Government v. City of Eureka (2007) 147 Cal.App.4th 357, opponents of a project that entailed constructing an outdoor playground argued that "the City failed to analyze the impact of the Project on the 'historic character' of the neighborhood." In that case, there was no evidence that "the Project contemplated any demolition of, or material alteration of, the physical characteristics of the identified historically significant structures." (Id. at p. 375.) Therefore, the court held that the opponents could not show any inadequacy in the EIR as to historical resource impact. (Ibid.)
