v.
TOWN OF WESTLAKE et al.
No. 67283.
Supreme Court of Louisiana.
September 3, 1980.
Rehearing Denied October 6, 1980.

John L. Van Norman, III, Rester, Van Norman & Wright, Lake Charles, for defendants-appellants.
BLANCHE, Justice.
This case was consolidated for argument with Baehr, et al. v. City of Lake Charles, 387 So.2d 1160 (La.1980) as the two involve the same issue: whether the court below was correct in its determination that portions of the zoning ordinances of the respective cities are unconstitutional by application of the rule enunciated by this court in Summerell v. Phillips, 282 So.2d 450 (La. 1973). The zoning ordinances are so alike as to be virtually the same, and the portions declared unconstitutional follow almost word for word. This case is before us on appeal pursuant to La.Const. art. V, § 5(D) (1974).
In the instant case, plaintiff owns a tract of land in the Town of Westlake. Plaintiff sought to obtain a building permit in order to construct a mobile home park on the property. This permit was denied by the town's building inspector on the grounds that the application failed to comply with the town's zoning ordinance because plaintiff had not obtained the "approval and issuance of a mobile home park permit" in advance. Plaintiff was unable to obtain this mobile home park permit for the reason that the property was not zoned for a mobile home park but was, in fact, zoned R-1 for Single Family Residence and R-M for Multi-Family Residence. An earlier attempt by plaintiff to have the property rezoned to the classification T-1, for Mobile Home Park, Type A, culminated in a denial by the Town of Westlake. In a court challenge to that denial, the Third Circuit Court of Appeal found the town's present classification of the property to be reasonable and found that the town acted within its power in denying the rezoning. We denied writs in that case.[1]
After considering the issue, the district court ruled that the ordinance was unconstitutional for the reason that "[t]he council could refuse a `T' district upon the application of one individual and yet grant it for another similarly situated, [and] [t]he zoning ordinance does not set forth sufficient guidelines and criteria to insure that all those similarly situated will be treated *1159 alike", relying on our decision in Summerell, supra.[2]
In Summerell we were faced with a situation which was quite different from the one herein. In that case, the ordinance at issue contained a specific provision that a trailer park would be permitted, with the approval of the zoning authority, in certain specified districts, i. e. in districts which had already been classified and zoned otherwise in the zoning ordinance but which were specifically listed as susceptible of having areas designated within them which the zoning authority could reclassify so as to permit construction of mobile home parks. However, that ordinance provided no criteria as a guide for the zoning authority to follow in order to determine whether individual permits would be granted or denied, and plaintiff in that case was denied a permit in a manner deemed arbitrary. Crucial to the holding in the issue was the finding that the ordinance left it entirely within the discretion of the zoning authority to grant or deny the permit, and this facet of the ordinance led us to rule that it was unconstitutional.
In the present case, the ordinance involved makes no provision for the establishment of trailer parks in districts already bearing some other designation. Trailer parks are restricted to those areas zoned only for that purpose, and areas zoned R-1 and R-M (such as the property here in question) are restricted to specified uses, among which is not included use as a mobile home park. Thus the question with which we are faced is substantially different to the question which we faced in Summerell. There, full discretion was given to the zoning authority to vary the classification in the district in question, but no criteria were provided for the exercise of that power; here, no such power is given in the first place. Once an area has been zoned for a specified purpose, it is restricted in use to whatever use is set out in that classification. The use may only be changed if the area is rezoned. A rezoning denial has already been judicially determined to have been properly refused plaintiff, and there may be no use of this property for the purpose of construction of a trailer park.
The court below was in error in applying the jurisprudential rule which we enunciated in Summerell in a situation which is quite different and to which the rule is inapplicable.
Plaintiff raises a second issue that the ordinances prohibiting the use of his land as *1160 a mobile home park were improperly promulgated and, therefore, null. This issue was not addressed by the district court in its written opinion; we make no ruling on this, preferring to remand the case for full consideration of this question by the lower court.
The decision of the district court on the issue of the constitutionality of the ordinance is, therefore, reversed and the case is remanded for disposition on those issues not previously considered.
REVERSED AND REMANDED.
