1DissentMelton, Justice

Given the similarity between this case and Expedia, Inc. v. City of Columbus, 285 Ga. 684 (681 SE2d 122) (2009), I must respectfully dissent in the current case for the same reason that I dissented in Expedia. The trial court’s grant of equitable relief was improper because an adequate remedy at law, declaratory judgment, was available to the City of Columbus. See, e.g., Levinson v. Pendley, 209 Ga. 335 (72 SE2d 306) (1952).
