City of White Settlement v. Super Wash, Inc.

Super Wash, Inc., a car wash business, is seeking to estop the City of White Settlement from enforcing an ordinance that requires Super Wash to maintain a continuous fence along one side of its property. On competing motions, the trial court granted summary judgment for the City. The court of appeals reversed and remanded, holding that issues of material fact precluded summary judgment. We conclude that, under the circumstances pre sented, the City cannot be estopped from enforcing its zoning ordinance. We reverse the court of appeals’ judgment in part and render judgment for the City.
