Memorandum Decision
TOOMEY, Judge:
{1 St. George City appeals from a district court order reversing the Citys revocation of the business license of Mikes Smoke, Cigar & Gifts (MSCG). The City argues the district court employed the incorrect standard in reviewing the Citys revocation decision. We agree and therefore vacate the order and remand for further proceedings.
2 MSCG is a store licensed by the City to sell cigarettes and other tobacco-related products. Between March 2012 and January 2013, the Washington County Drug Task Force investigated MSCG for the suspected distribution of a controlled substance. Investigators purchased a product called Reborn at MSCG; they later seized MSCs inventory of Reborn. A forensic scientist at the Utah Bureau of Forensic Sciences (the State Crime Lab) tested samples of Reborn, and determined that it contained a substance known as XLR11, a structural analog of another substance called AM-694. Because AM-694 is classified as a controlled substance under Utah law and MSCG sold a structural analog of it, the City revoked MSCGs business license. MSCG appealed to the City Council.
3 During a hearing before the City Council, attorneys for the City and MSCG argued their respective positions and proffered evi-denee. The City presented the State Crime Labs reports in which the forensic scientist attested that the samples of Reborn contained XLR11, which has a substantially similar chemical structure to the controlled substance AM-694. Taking the opposite view, MSCG presented the City Council with two opinion letters. In the first letter, a chemist opined that XLR11 is substantially structurally different from AM-694 and therefore is not a structural analog of AM-694. In the second letter, a chemistry consultant opined that XLR1I1 and AM-694 are structurally dissimilar and have different pharmacological effects.
T4 Based on the evidence before it, the City Council determined that the product sold by MSCG contained XLR11. It then relied on the State Crime Labs reports to conclude that XLR11 is an analog of AM-694 and concluded that MSCG sold and possessed the product with intent to distribute it in violation of the Utah Controlled Substances Act. As a result, the City Council upheld the Citys business-license-revocation decision.
15 MSCG petitioned the district court for judicial review of the Citys decision. In its petition, MSCG claimed, first, that the Citys revocation decision was not supported by substantial evidence and, second, that the definition of a controlled substance analog: under the Utah Controlled Substances Analog Statute (the Analog Statute) was unconstitutionally vague. See Utah Code Ann. § 58-37-2(g) (LexisNexis 2012). In contrast, the City contended the City Council correctly interpreted the Analog Statute and MSCGs constitutional challenge lacked merit. Further, the City asserted that substantial evidence in the administrative record supported the City Councils revocation decision.
¶ 6 After reading the briefing and listening to oral argument on the matter, the district court issued its Final Order on Petition for Judicial Review. In the order, the court acknowledged that its task was to determine whether the City Councils decision is supported by substantial evidence in the record. (Citing 14th St. Gym, Inc. v. Salt Lake City Corp., 2008 UT App 127, ¶ 10, 183 P.3d 262.) The court then found that there is a disputed issue of fact as to whether the substance Reborn has a substantially similar chemical structure to a controlled substance analog because such a finding cannot be made on written opinions by two qualified experts. Consequently, the court reverse[d] and remand{ed] the matter back to the City Council to hold an evidentiary hearing where the experts can testify under oath and may be subject to cross examination by counsel. Based on this ruling, the court did not reach the underlying merits regarding the constitutionality of the Analog Statute. The courts order concluded, This is the final Order of the Court until after the City [Council] holds an evidentiary hearing as set forth above. The City appeals.
I. The District Courts Order Is a Final Appealable Order.
¶ 7 As an initial matter, MSCG contends that we lack jurisdiction, arguing the district courts order is not a final appealable order. In particular, MSCG asserts that because the district court did not rule on the merits of its constitutional argument by addressing the meaning and interpretation of the Analog Statute, the issue remained before the court for its adjudication. MSCG further argues that the language of the order stating that it is the final Order of the Court until after the City [Council] holds an eviden-tiary hearing indicates that the district court was not treating the order as final.
¶ 8 (Whether an order is final and appealable ... is a question of law. Miller v. USAA Cas. Ins. Co., 2002 UT 6, ¶ 18, 44 P.3d 663. A judgment is final if it dis-posel[s] of the case as to all the parties, and finally dispose[s] of the subject-matter of the litigation on the merits of the case. Bradbury v. Valencia, 2000 UT 50, ¶ 9, 5 P.3d 649 (emphasis, citation, and internal quotation marks omitted). Put differently, a final judgment ends the controversy between the parties. Id. (citation and internal quotation marks omitted).
¶ 9 To support its position that the district courts order was not final, MSCG cites Loffredo v. Holt, 2001 UT 97, 37 P.3d 1070. In Loffredo, our supreme court dismissed an appeal, concluding that it lacked jurisdiction because the district courts order was not final,. Id. ¶ 17. The supreme court reasoned, although the district court had ruled upon the majority of the claims, it had not ruled on the issue of attorney fees. Id. ¶ 14. The supreme court held that for an order to be final, it requires all claims ... be decided in order for a decision to be appropriately appealed. Id.
¶ 10 By contrast, in Zions Management Services v. Record, our supreme court concluded that a district courts order was final for the purposes of appeal because there was nothing left for the district court to do. 2013 UT 36, ¶ 26, 305 P.3d 1062. Even though the controversy persisted in another forum, the order effectively ended the controversy between the parties because it left no claims pending before the district court. Id. Moreover, the supreme court further clarified that the district courts jurisdiction to enter post-arbitration judgment did not otherwise affect the finality of the order where no claims remained before the district court after it issued the order. Id. ¶ 29. Accordingly, the relevant inquiry for the purposes of finality centers on whether the order left anything else for the district court to adjudicate.
¶ 11 Although it appears counter-factual to conclude that an order remanding the matter to the City Council for further proceedings ends the controversy between the parties, the controversy ended with respect to what the district court could do. Under Ztonss logic, although the controversy still exists between the parties in the administrative forum, the order is final because nothing is left pending before the district court. Here, unlike Loffredo, the court disposed of all of the parties claims, albeit erroneously, when it reverse[d] and remand[ed] the matter back to the City Council to hold an evidentia-ry hearing and then dismissed MSC@Gs constitutional issues based on that ruling. The courts order did not rule on the merits of MSCGs constitutional argument, but the order did dispose of the case so far as the court was concerned and effectively end[ed] the controversy between the parties before the district court. See Bradbury, 2000 UT 50, ¶ 9, 5 P.3d 649 (citation and internal quotation marks omitted).
112 MSCG further asserts that the order is not final based on its own language. Indeed, the last sentence of the order describes the order as a final order until after the City [Council] holds an evidentiary hearing. Nevertheless, at the hearing the district court reversed and remanded the issues to the City Council, dismissed MSCGs constitutional issues, and then instructed the parties that they would have thirty days to appeal from it. This language, however, is surplus-age in the face of other indications that the court intended the order as a final judgment. For these reasons, we conclude the order is a final appealable judgment that is properly before us. Accordingly, we turn to the merits of the Citys appeal.
II. The District Court Employed the Incorrect Standard in Reviewing the - City Councils Revocation Decision.
¶ 13 The City argues on appeal that the district court used the incorrect standard in reviewing the City Councils business-license-revocation decision. In particular, it contends the court erroneously applied a summary judgment framework to reverse the City Councils decision on the basis that a disputed issue of fact precluded the City Council from making a finding that Reborn is a structural analog of a controlled substance. MSCG agrees. Whether the trial court employed the proper standards presents a legal question which is reviewed for correctness. See Chandler v. Blue Cross Blue Shield of Utah, 833 P.2d 356, 360 (Utah 1992); see also Searle v. Milburn Irrigation Co., 2006 UT 16, ¶ 14, 133 P.3d 382.
114 Judicial review of license revocations by municipalities is limited to a determination whether the municipality acted within its lawful authority and in a manner that is not arbitrary or capricious. Dairy Prod. Servs., Inc. v. City of Wellsville, 2000 UT 81, ¶ 42, 13 P.3d 581 (citation and internal quotation marks omitted). This court has indicated that a municipalitys license revocation decision is deemed arbitrary or capricious if it is not supported by substantial evidence in the record. 14th St. Gym, Inc. v. Salt Lake City Corp., 2008 UT App 127, ¶ 10, 183 P.3d 262 (citation and internal quotation marks omitted). This standard does not allow the reviewing court to reweigh the evi-denee, Dairy Prod. Servs., 2000 UT 81, ¶ 42, 13 P.3d 581, but requires the court to consider all the evidence in the record, both favorable and contrary, and determine whether a reasonable mind could reach the same conclusion as the [city, 14th St. Gym, 2008 UT App 127, ¶ 10, 183 P.3d 262.
15 Although the district court correctly identified the standard for reviewing the City Councils decision, it did not analyze whether the City Councils decision was supported by substantial evidence. Instead, the district court found that there is a disputed issue of fact as to whether the substance Reborn has a substantially similar chemical structure to a controlled substance analog. Because of this disputed issue of fact, the district court then reversed the City Councils revocation decision for further fact finding. Instead of looking at all the evidence, both favorable and contrary, to determine if a reasonable mind could reach the City Councils decision, the court seems to have reviewed the decision within the summary judgment framework. See Utah R. Civ. P. 56(c) (indicating that summary judgment is appropriate if based on the evidence there is no genuine issue as to any material fact and ... the moving party is entitled to a judgment as a matter of law). Whether there is a dispute in material facts is not relevant to the district courts review of a municipalitys business-license-revocation decision. As a consequence, the district court erred by viewing this case through the prism of the summary judgment standard.
Hi. Conclusion
116 The district courts order was final because it disposed of all of the parties claims. But the court erred when it failed to determine whether the City Councils business-license-revocation decision was supported by substantial evidence. Accordingly, we vacate the order and remand for the district court to analyze the parties claims under the correct legal standards.
. Pursuant to a stipulation, the City stayed the revocation of MSCGs business license while the matter is pending.
. The district court judge explained this ruling at the hearing, stating,
[Mly thinking is I need to reverse and remand sometimes as appellate courts do. I want to reverse and remand and tell you to have an evidentiary hearing where the experts are put under oath, theyre subject to examination and cross-examination, and then the city council can make a determination based on an eviden-tiary hearing.
. The City asks us to independently, review the administrative record and to resolve these issues, but we decline to do so without the benefit of the district courts analysis.
