Description
Appellants Donald H. Cummins, Betty Ann Bradfield Cummins, Thomas W. Cummins, and William Bradfield Cummins own property on a high bluff overlooking Lake Travis and abutting land owned by appellee, the Travis County Water Control and Improvement District No. 17. In 2002, the Cumminses applied to the District for a license to build a boat dock on a part of the lake subject to the Districts regulation. After the District denied the license, the Cumminses sought a declaratory judgment that they have rights to use and enjoy their land as waterfront property, inclusive of the right to construct a recreational boat dock, because they are riparian or littoral owners of land along the shore of Lake Travis or, in the alternative, because they possess an easement or quasi-easement entitling them to such rights.
