Eminent Domain: Does the government have the right to take your property for private use?
Q. Just about everyone knows that under a process called eminent domain, the government can (and does) seize private property for public use - to build a road, a school or a courthouse. But did you know the government can also seize your land for private use if they can prove that doing it will serve what's called "the public good"? Cities across the country have been using eminent domain to force people off their land, so private developers can build more expensive homes and offices that will pay more in property taxes than the buildings they're replacing. Under eminent domain, the government buys your property, paying you what's determined to be fair market value. Please respond with your opinion on this issue. Any feedback is… [cont.]

A. As of now, yes there was a supreme court ruling on a case in New London, Ct. where the city took land for a commercial development under the "public good" premise of rehabilitation. I think it sucks.

A. While I agree with Curtis that it ought to be unconstitutional for the government to condemn property for the purpose of giving it to a private developer for the ostensible purpose of increasing tax revenue, that is not the way the Supreme Court decided the issue in the case of Kelo v. City of New London, Connecticut (cited below). To argue the point you have been assigned, you may want to point out the arguments raised in Justice O'Connor's dissent in the Kelo case -- she argues that the majority has too broad an understanding of what a "public purpose" is for condemnation.

Can a city use eminent domain in this context?
Q. The city of Hercules, CA decided to impose eminent domain to keep Walmart from setting up shop in their city. I can appreciate the aspect of keeping big business like Walmart out (low wages, no heath care, etc.), however is this the right context? Doesn't this go against everything that eminent domain stands for? What is so eminent?! From what i read, the town will just keep the land undeveloped. I'd love to hear some expert opinions. This seems to go against the spirit of the creation of this special power afforded government entities. In this context, it is being used 'block' private business. It seems like abuse. What are the precedence implications for something like this?

A. A governmental entity with the powers of eminent domain can do anything it deems to be for public use, which the US Supreme Court has recently re-defined as also including the public INTEREST. (See Kelo v. New London case). So long as there are no additional state constitutional or state or city statutory limitations on the city of Hercules (you'd have to check state and local laws to be sure there are not), then the answer is yes, they can do it. Which doesn't make it right, it just makes it legal.

Should the government be allowed to use eminent domain for a memorial?
Q. The area in Pennsylvania where flight 93 crashed is being designated for a memorial. The 2,200 acres "needed" for the memorial will encroach on privately owned land. Should the government be allowed to use eminent domain (government can seize privately owned property to convert it to public use after paying the owner fair market value)?

A. No, what is next? It is absurd that the government needs 2,200 acres for a memorial. This is the government using its absolute power over a private land owner and oppressing his right. If I was the private land owner, I would fight this tooth and nail in the court system because typically, eminent domain is used for public utilities, highways, and railroads. The compensation for the land must be higher than market price.

What are the cons to eminent domain?
Q. Basically why is eminent domain bad, is it fair, and arguments against people who support eminent domain. Thank you.
Asked by dave - Mon Feb 18 12:14:44 2008 - - 5 Answers - 1 Comments
A. Under current Supreme Court doctrine, the biggest con is that the government can take your property so that another private citizen can develop it. Previously, it was only used when the use was for a public or government-supported project. Now, if it is determined that the benefit of the private project would accrue to the community, it can justify a taking. I am very opposed to this sort of activity. If private people or companies want to acquire your property, they should have to negotiate with you, and nothing should force you to sell if you don't want to. The other con that has existed since the doctrine was first developed is determining what a fair payment is when your property is taken.

A. If you have a partial taking by eminent domain the value of the property should be reduced to account for the government's taking. If you have a forced easement for which you're being compensated then you remain liable for the property taxes. Consult with a local real estate attorney for guidance specific to your situation.

Was the latest eminent domain ruling by the Supreme Court the right one?
Q. It seems to me the most conservative ruling would have been to give the right of eminent domain to the states and let them decide their own rules.

Taxpayer dollars have no place in supporting private industry. Individual rights should be sacrosanct from corporations and government. Oh, and about paying fair value, as stated above? In the case this ruling was based on, the New London Development Corporation wants to pay residents based on value they held in 2000, rather than present value because that's what the original offer was.

A. Statutes vary by country. In the US statutes vary by state. Basically it is the right of government to take private property from the private property owner. The right is supposed to be limited to taking for "the public good." If the state wants to put in a highway on your property, they can take your property. In PA, the law says the state has to pay fair market value plus expenses...moving, utility shut offs, and so on.
