	DESIGN IMMUNITY Under Government Code section 830.6 a public entity is immune from injury resulting from a condition of public property if the condition was the result of a design that was approved by an appropriate official body in the exercise of its discretion and could have been approved by a reasonable official body. Whether the design could have been approved by a reasonable official body is a question of law to be resolved by the court. Design immunity may be lost if plaintiff can show that the plan or design has become dangerous because of a change in physical conditions, and the public entity had actual or constructive notice of the dangerous condition and a reasonable time to obtain the funds and carry out necessary remedial work, or lacking funds, failed to make a reasonable attempt to provide adequate warnings.
