HASTINGS, Chief Justice.

Plaintiff landowners appeal the judgment of the district court, which dismissed their petition for a writ of mandamus. By petitioning for such writ, the plaintiffs sought to compel the City of Omaha to revoke a development permit issued to intervenor Midlands Development Co. (Midlands), which allowed Midlands to remove dirt from the floodway and place it in the flood plain of Big Papillion Creek, thus changing the line of the floodway.
