Since this seems to be a misapprehension by a couple of commentators I'll put this as a top-level comment. The family bringing the lawsuit is not the family that donated the land.

Is the family suing a member of the city? If so they still seem like valid complainants in the case since its publicly owned land.

		The land has changed hands a few times since it was deeded to the county. They're sueing the entity that sold it to the people developing the data center.
