CHIPMAN, Judge.

This is a suit for declaratory and injunctive relief by the City of Hobart against the Town of Merrillville. The City sought to have declared void the Town's Ordinance No. 74-18 which purported to annex certain real property located near the City of Hobart. Landowners in the annexed area were permitted to intervene. The trial court granted summary judgment in favor of the Town and Intervenors and the City appealed. We reverse.
