OPINION

MARTIN J. MANSUR, Judge.

Trucking company owners appeal a decision of the district court dismissing their suit for a declaratory judgment that respondents, in their capacity as board members of the Minnesota Transportation Regulation Board, violated the open meeting law. The district court dismissed the suit, concluding that appellants had not presented a justiciable controversy and that as a result the district court lacked jurisdiction over the matter. The district court also concluded that attorney fees were not recoverable under Minn. Stat. § 471.705 (1992). We affirm.
