Mukilteo Citizens v. City of Mukilteo
Washington Supreme Court
1Opinion of the CourtMadsen, C.J.
¶1 This case involves a preelection challenge to an initiative measure, Proposition 1, which repealed an ordinance governing the use of automated traffic safety cameras in the city of Mukilteo. The trial court *44declined to grant an injunction, and Proposition 1 was placed on the November 2, 2010 Snohomish County general election ballot.
¶2 We hold that because the legislature expressly granted authority to the governing body of the city of Mukilteo to enact ordinances on the use of automated traffic safety cameras, the subject matter of Proposition 1 is not within the initiative power.
