Disputed Act

County purchased two lots of land from developer to build a fire and rescue station. Residential neighbors brought action for equitable servitude and injunctive relief, citing expectation of development plots being reserved for residential-use only and the development of a fire and rescue station would cause harm through increased traffic, noise, and light pollution.

Holding
The Court found that the County had proper notice that the development plots were restricted to residential use and therefore enjoined the County from using the property from non-single family residential purposes.
