Description
This is a municipal law case. In 1989, the Village of Creedmoor ("Creedmoor") annexed 234 acres immediately adjacent to its city limits. Several weeks later, Creedmoor attempted to enjoin certain activities that Texas Disposal Systems, Inc. ("TDS") was conducting on the annexed property. The Heep Trusts 1 and 2 ("Heep"), owners of a portion of the property Creedmoor annexed, later intervened on behalf of Creedmoor. Frost National Bank ("Frost"), as trustee of a portion of the property located within the 234-acre tract, and the City of Austin intervened on the side of TDS, arguing that, because the property in question was within the City of Austins extraterritorial jurisdiction ("ETJ"), the attempted annexation was void. The trial court granted Frosts motion for summary judgment and declared that Creedmoors annexation of the 234-acre tract was void ab initio because the annexed property was within the exclusive ETJ of the City of Austin. Creedmoor and Heep now appeal the summary-judgment ruling. We will affirm the judgment of the trial court.
