In 2003, Plaintiffs sold some parcels of land to Defendant Forest Preserve District. Along with other persons, total land sold to District was 531.8 acres. Eventually, the deeds were rerecorded and the restrictive covenant language removed. Plaintiffs filed complaint against District, and court properly dismissed complaint, as Plaintiffs lack standing. Plaintiffs are not successors to the interest of the Illinois Department of Natural Resources and its agreement with the Forest Preserve District. (BURKE and SPENCE, concurring.)
