Municipal Corporations - Statutory Abolition of Sovereign Immunity - City Not Liable for Good Faith Enactment of Ordinance Later Held to Be Unconstitutional

The Court of Appeals of Washington has held that liability for damages against a municipality must be predicated upon the tortious conduct of the municipality, and that the good faith enactment of an ordinance is a legislative act which cannot be characterized as tortious, no matter how mistaken or unwise the municipality\u27s legislative action may have been.
