An agency representing Orange County cities says it will sue the government department responsible for approving state-imposed housing quotas in California.

The Orange County Council of Governments (OCCOG) has been meeting in closed session for nearly six months to discuss the legal matter. The board revealed to the public on May 27 that it had voted unanimously to sue the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) over its latest Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) plan.
