OPINION

BENAVIDES, Justice.

This is an appeal from a summary judgment. We affirm.1

Appellants sued the City of Corpus Christi (the City) and the State of Texas for injunctive and declaratory relief, contesting the validity of the data used and the method by which the City calculated the effective tax rate for 1984, as required by TEX. TAX CODE ANN. Ch. 26 (Vernon 1982). Appellants also asserted that Tax Code Chapter 26 is unconstitutional, alleging the statute is so vague as to be unenforceable *579because it fails to specify the method of calculation to be used by a taxing entity.
