McDEVITT, Justice,
specially concurring:
I concur in the opinion reached by the Court in this case, but must note that I would hold that the trial court erred in its determination that the Janss Agreement had no bearing on the legal issues before it. The Janss Agreement was binding between the parties, i.e., the Idaho Power Company and the Janss Corporation (the predecessor-in-interest to The Villager Condominium Association, and The New Villager Condominium Association, Inc.) As a result of this agreement on the plats filed in connection with the development of The *990Villager Condominiums an easement was delineated for the utilities to serve that development. The easement so granted was utilized by the power company, providing power to underground vaults from which the power to the individual condominium units was distributed. The essential part of the opinion of the Court is that dealing with the expansion of an easement in which I fully concur.
