The opinion

TORBERT, Chief Justice

(concurring in the result).

I concur in the majority’s holding that a municipality may not in perpetuity contractually restrict its power of eminent domain; however, it would appear the alleged vacation or closing of the public walkway will materially interfere with the public use to which the walkway is already subjected or devoted.

BEATTY, J., concurs.
