Anti-tunnel crusader and onetime mayoral candidate Elizabeth Campbell has filed a lawsuit against the city seeking to overturn the city's controversial Memorandum of Agreement with the state, which expressed the city's support for the downtown deep-bore tunnel. (Opponents of the MOA, including Mayor-Elect Mike McGinn and City Council Member-elect Mike O'Brien, have accused the council of rushing into the tunnel decision before they know how much it will actually cost).

Campbell's group, Seattle Citizens Against the Tunnel, has already filed a lawsuit against the state, arguing that the state illegally moved forward with the tunnel before doing the required environmental reviews. This suit, filed by Campbell herself, accuses the city (among other things) of failing to consider the environmental impacts of tearing down the Alaskan Way Viaduct and of passing the MOA "prematurely."

One (potentially) bad sign for the latest volley in Campbell's anti-tunnel crusade: Campbell is filing the suit without an attorney.
