Re: President Bush Blocks Federal Eminent Domain Abuses
Ones that don't include the possibility of a private developer using a local government to condemn property, which is then turned over the to private developer to turn into a high-revenue stream, income-producing property for the developer/owner.
If the project is as lucrative and beneficial as the developer makes it out to be, there should be no need to utilize the eminent domain powers of a local government. They should just pay the existing property owners the market rate for their land and leave the local government to stiplulate all the necessary code requirements. Period.
