Description
The plaintiffs are residents and owners of property known as "Five Mile Prairie," located on a plateau near the city of Spokane. They brought this action on behalf of themselves and others similarly situated to restrain the defendants from the operation of a rock quarry, the operation of a rock crushing plant, or the use of explosives on property acquired by the city for that purpose. Plaintiffs alleged that they raise poultry, farm animals and livestock, and that it will be impossible to breed or raise such poultry or livestock because of the noise, dust and confusion resulting from the quarry operations; that the blasting will change the water courses and their wells will become polluted or dry up; that the blasting and operation of the rock crushing plant will endanger the comfort, health, repose and safety of the plaintiffs; and that the market value of their property will be radically reduced, thus damaging their property without due process of law.
