This is an action for mandamus, declaratory judgment, injunctive relief, and contract damages. The trial court granted appellees’ motion to dismiss the action for failure to state a claim upon which relief could be granted. The judgment of the trial court is affirmed except *146to the extent that the trial court dismissed the appellants’ claim for contract damages. We find that this claim should not have been dismissed.
