In summary, we affirm in part and reverse in part. We affirm the trial court’s conclusion that Hoagland is not entitled to legal relief, as there is no right of action for monetary damages under the Indiana Constitution. However, we conclude that the ITCA does not apply to Hoagland’s state constitutional claim, and we reverse the trial court on that ground. We also conclude that Franklin Township acted unconstitutionally by

We therefore reverse the trial court’s denial of declaratory judgment and remand to the trial court with instructions to enter a declaratory judgment consistent with this opinion.
