Description
The opinion of the court was delivered by This is an appeal by the City of Lawrence and individual city commissioners (defendants-appellants) from a declaratory judgment entered against them and in favor of Allen L. Moore and Western Home Builders, Inc. (plaintiffs-appellees). The district court found that Section 21-203(d) and (f) and Section 21-302.1 of the City Code of the City of Lawrence were in conflict with K.S.A. 12-705b and were therefore invalid, and that dedications of streets, utility easements and other rights-of-way indicated on appellees' subdivision plat were automatically accepted by the public when the plat was approved by the City Planning Commission and filed with the Douglas County Register of Deeds. The facts are brief and undisputed. In the fall of 1980, plaintiffs submitted a proposed subdivision plat to the Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Commission for approval, as required by K.S.A. 12-705b. In addition to lot lines, the plat delineated proposed dedications of rights-of-way for streets, sidewalks and utility easements. The plat was found to be in conformity with the city's subdivision regulations and was approved by the planning commission on November 19, 1980.
