OPINION

ANN CRAWFORD McCLURE, Chief Justice.

This is an accelerated interlocutory appeal from a trial court order granting the City of El Paso's plea to the jurisdiction. The suit arises out of a June 2008 car accident between Michael Joseph Lynch and Hilda Muniz Morales. The accident occurred when Muniz failed to observe a stop sign allegedly obscured by palm tree fronds. For the reasons that follow, we reverse and remand.
