1Opinion of the CourtSeinfeld, J.
Thurston County appeals two separate summary judgments in favor of two property owners. In each case, the trial court held that development rights vested on the date the property owners filed their preliminary plat applications.

It further urges that its ordinance does not conflict with state statutes and is constitutional. We consolidated the appeals and affirm.
