I can help. What seems to be the misunderstanding about eminent domain?

I think Eminem domain is Detroit. Detroit should be condemned.
Good luck

Eminent domain, for the most part, is a terrible program. Acquiring property legally is one thing for the public need, but taking someone's home for a sports venue (AT&T Stadium in Arlington), or someone's home for a shopping mall (NE Mall in Hurst), or someone's family farm for a casino (Winstar in Oklahoma) is just so wrong.

Family is everything!

Life is precious. We don’t have forever. We have now. This moment. We can choose to love our lives now.

How about all the land that was grabbed for the SCSC and then the project was flushed?

Yep, roads are one thing, if you didnt have it none would get built. Malls, parking lots and stadiums are a whole different deal.

Many problems with Eminent Domain. The biggest is the "fair value" part. It should be at least Market Value plus 15%. That way you are adequately compensated for them stealing your property. Most court cases are about the "fair value" that they try to pay you.


May you be treated the way you treat other people, today and everyday!

I might be needing one as well as they are going to widen the state hwy behind my house. However the city I think has worked a deal to take this section from the state in a road swap so I don’t know who I’ll be dealing with yet.
