Case Study:  Special District 

DGS recently represented a city in a successful appeal of a $9.6 million judgment arising from the city’s withdrawal from a park and recreation district.  The district court had ruled that the city was required to reimburse the district for the fair market value of certain parks, formerly owned by the district, that were located within the city.  DGS attorney Andy Low successfully argued that the governing statute did not require the city to pay the district for the fair market value of the parks, especially where the parks would continue to be open to residents of the district, and the district consequently would not have to buy additional land for replacement parks.
