SATZ, Presiding Judge.
This is a declaratory judgment action in which plaintiffs, Dr. Jimmy H. Elam and his wife, challenge the reasonableness of the residential zoning of their property located at 10446 St. Charles Rock Road (Rock Road) in defendant City of St. Ann (City). The trial court held the residential zoning was unconstitutionally unreasonable in violation of the due process clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution and Article 1, Section 10 of the Missouri Constitution. The court ordered the City to rezone the property to a commercial classification. We reverse.
