Opinion by Judge RAWLINSON; Dissent by Judge ALDISERT.
RAWLINSON, Circuit Judge:
The controlling question in this case is whether Appellant the City of Los Angeles (the City) may revoke a building permit issued to Appellee Congregation Etz Chaim (the Congregation) authorizing renovations to a home owned by the Congregation and used as a place of worship. Because we agree with the district court that Congregation was entitled to rely on issuance of the building permit by the City, we AFFIRM the district court’s order lifting the stop-work order issued by the City.
