1Opinion of the CourtHjelm, J.
[¶1] In this zoning dispute between owners of abutting parcels of property located in Cape Elizabeth, Cape Shore House Owners Association and Constance Jordan (collectively, Cape Shore) appeal from a judgment of the Superior Court (Cumberland County, L. Walker, J. ) dismissing their claim for a declaratory judgment. Because the court did not err by dismissing that claim as duplicative of Cape Shore's appeal from municipal action filed pursuant to Maine Rule of Civil Procedure 80B, which was included in the same complaint, we affirm the judgment.
