OPINION

LESLIE, Judge.

The City of Minneapolis denied Amoco Oil Company’s application for a conditional use permit to operate a twenty-four-hour combination gas station and grocery store because the store conflicted with the city’s comprehensive zoning plan and because it would detrimentally impact upon neighboring residents. Amoco brought an action against the city for declaratory and injunc-tive relief. Both parties moved for summary judgment and the trial court granted the city’s motion, refusing to set aside the city council’s determination. We reverse.
