OPINION ON REHEARING

FELIPE REYNA, Justice.

Bret “Doc” Berkman filed suit against the City of Keene alleging that the City was obligated to furnish water and sewer services to his property at no charge under an agreement between the City and Berk-man’s predecessors in title. The trial court granted the City’s summary-judgment motion. On original submission, we reversed the judgment and remanded this cause for further proceedings. The City contends in its motion for rehearing that the case should be dismissed for want of jurisdiction because of its immunity from suit. We agree.
