Description
This appeal and cross-appeal both involve the respective rights of the parties to certain land located adjacent to the Santa Fe municipal airport. The City of Santa Fe (city) appeals the trial court's decision allowing a partial reversion of the subject property, purchased by the city in 1941, to the grantors' children (plaintiffs) because of the purported failure of the city to use the property for "airport purposes" as specified in the deed in question. Plaintiffs cross-appeal the trial court's refusal to uphold plaintiffs' claim of reversion to a separate tract of land that was the subject of another, later revised condition subsequent. Both parties raise the issue of the interpretation of the two conditions subsequent and whether the language and intent of the parties permitted partial reversion. Plaintiffs also argue that the city failed to preserve certain issues. Determining that the trial court erred in ordering the partial reversion, we reverse on the issue raised by the city's appeal. We affirm on the cross-appeal, concluding the trial court did not err in disallowing partial reversion with respect to the separate tract.
