Description
Plaintiffs brought this action against the City of Jennings seeking a declaratory judgment that the city's Ordinance No. 1183 was invalid. They also prayed for injunctive relief to prevent defendant from erecting a barricade across Ellison Drive pursuant to the said ordinance. The trial court found the ordinance valid and entered judgment in favor of defendant. Plaintiffs appeal from that judgment. This suit arose out of the passage of Ordinance No. 1183 1 by the Jennings City Council. The Ordinance authorizes and directs the Jennings Street Department to erect a barricade at the city limits between Ferguson and Jennings on Ellison Drive. The ordinance was passed in response to a petition submitted by residents of Jennings whose property abutted Ellison and Clarion Drives. The petition asserted that increased traffic on these streets created a traffic hazard and produced an increase in litter and noise in the area. The petition requested that barricades be placed on both Ellison and Clarion; however, the ordinance passed by the Jennings City Council authorized a barricade on Ellison only.
