Alexandria v. The Texas Co., 172 Va. 209

3.  Municipal Corporations – Police Powers – restrictions on Use of Property. – Under its police power a city may not arbitrarily restrict an owner in the use of his property, but the restriction sought to be imposed must bear a substantial relation to the public health, safety, morals, or general welfare.  

8.  Constitutional Law – waiver of Rights – Grant of Privilege on Condition That Grantee Surrender Constitutional Right. – A State can not grant a privilege subject to the agreement that the grantee will surrender a constitutional right, even in those cases where the State has the unqualified power to withhold the grant altogether, and where such a condition is imposed upon the grantee, he may ignore or enjoin the enforcement of the condition without thereby losing the grant.
