King George County Service Authority v. Presidential Service Co. Tier II, Inc.

Supreme Court of Virginia

Decided March 5, 2004No. Record 030592PublishedCited by 3 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtJustice Kinser

The dispositive issue in this appeal is whether alleged contracts for the purchase of a privately owned utility system by a county service authority can be specifically enforced in the absence of a resolution by the service authority’s board authorizing or ratifying the contracts. Concluding that such a resolution is necessary, we will reverse that portion of the circuit court’s judgment specifically enforcing one of the alleged contracts and directing the service authority to purchase a certain portion of the utility system.
