California's Supreme Court ruled on Thursday, March 30, 2017, that an upscale coastal city failed to adequately consider the environmental impacts of a plan to build homes on a large swath of land overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The court found that the city of Newport Beach should have considered environmentally sensitive habitat areas when drafting a review of a hotly-contested proposal to develop the 401-acre parcel known as Banning Ranch.
