and as often as may be deemed expedient.

any manner to question the propriety of the adoption thereof, or to enjoin or restrain the County
from adopting the same or from taking any action pursuant to the provisions thereof.

Section 7.01, this Resolution shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance
therewith, and the respective rights, duties and obligations under this Resolution of the County
