Description
The Main Street Baptist Church, through its pastor and trustees, brought suit in federal district court against the City of Burnside, Kentucky, as well as against the Citys mayor and several council members, asserting claims pursuant to 42 U.S.C. ร§ 1983 and the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA). These claims arose from the Citys decision to develop a previously dedicated roadway located between two lots owned by the Church. Both parties moved for summary judgment. The district court granted summary judgment in favor of the City on the Churchs ร§ 1983 claim and dismissed sua sponte the Churchs RFRA cause of action for failure to state a claim upon which relief may be granted. For the reasons set forth below, we AFFIRM the judgment of the district court.
