Marina County Water Dist. v. State Water Resources Control Bd

In Marina County Water Dist. v. State Water Resources Control Bd. (1984) 163 Cal.App.3d 132, the Court of Appeal did not interpret section 183. The appellate court, when setting forth the background facts, noted that the superior court had declared a Board order void "because it was not approved by a majority, i.e., three members, of the Board as required by ... section 183." (Marina County Water Dist., at p. 136.) It pointed out that the Board "subsequently issued a second order ... exactly the same as the first, but approved by the requisite majority." (Ibid.) It is unclear from this opinion whether one member or a quorum participated in the first vote. Moreover, the court did not consider the correct interpretation of section 181 or section 183. Accordingly, Marina County Water Dist. does not provide any authority for the proper construction of section 183.
