Answer:

c.

Explanation:

Based on the information provided it can be said that in this situation the contract is discharged. This means that the contract is terminated, either because obligations were met, or something is preventing the obligations from being met by either party involved. Which in this scenario the new zoning law is preventing Ken's Construction from upholding their contract obligations and thus Lo-Price's law suit against them would end in the contracts discharge.
