OPINION

JAMES T. WORTHEN, Chief Justice.

Olympic Waste Services, a division of Allied Waste Industries, Inc., appeals from the trial court’s orders granting the City of Grand Saline’s plea to the jurisdiction and motion for summary judgment and the trial court’s order denying Olympic’s motion for partial summary judgment. In five issues, Olympic contends the City is not immune from suit for breach of contract and the trial court made erroneous rulings regarding its claim for violations of the Texas Open Meetings Act. 1 We affirm in part and reverse and render in part.
