 33 Wn.2d 76, THE STATE OF WASHINGTON, on the Relation of King County, Plaintiff, v. THE SUPERIOR COURT FOR KING COUNTY, ...
The powers of a county can be exercised only by its board of county commissioners or by agents or officers acting under its authority or under authority of law; and such boards have only such powers as have been granted to them, expressly or by necessary implication, by the constitution and statutes of the state.
Pursuant to the adoption of the resolution, the relator, King county, on December 14, 1948, filed in the superior court a petition seeking adjudication of such public use and the determination by a jury of the amount of damages and compensation to be awarded to the landowners, named as respondents, affected by such proceedings.
A hearing was had before the court, at the conclusion of which the court sustained the demurrers, on the grounds that the court had no jurisdiction of the subject matter of the action and that the relator had no legal capacity to sue.

It came on the heels of Initiative 722, passed by Washington State voters in 2000 and later invalidated by the Washington State Supreme Court.
They argued that I-747's ballot title failed to accurately portray its subject, and the initiative itself did not properly describe the part of RCW (the Revised Code of Washington) it was amending.
But remember that I-776 was also struck down in King County Superior Court a few years ago and later restored by the State Supreme Court in a divided decision.

SEATTLE - Initiative 776, the voter-approved $30 car tab measure, is unconstitutional and cannot be enforced because the ballot measure impermissibly linked two subjects, a King County Superior Court judge ruled Monday.
Judge Mary Yu said the initiative, spearheaded by anti-tax activist Tim Eyman, was "unconstitutional in its entirety."
On Thursday, Snohomish County Superior Court Judge Kenneth Cowsert rejected an Eyman-backed bid to force the mass transit agency to stop collecting a 0.3 percent motor vehicle excise tax while a discussion over the legality of Eyman's most recent initiative is resolved.
