We can sleep a ordsprog

We can sleep a little easier at night knowing a private developer will not wield the power of eminent domain. As long as the power of eminent domain remained with the state, we would be comfortable.

Across the nation, cities and developers are fighting very hard to hold on to their power to confiscate other people's homes and businesses for private development. There is overwhelming public support for an end to eminent domain abuse. Legislatures need to make real changes, not cosmetic ones, to end eminent domain for private commercial development throughout the country.

This is something that liberals and conservatives seem to agree: to stop eminent domain abuse. The question is: When does eminent domain cross the line to eminent domain abuse? We've struggled with that.

I think if we can avoid the use of eminent domain, we will do so. We're not crazy about going out and using the power of eminent domain, but, quite frankly, it's there to allow public bodies to acquire lands for public use.

Eminent domain is already among the most awesome powers of government, and we must do everything possible to protect the rights of private property ownership. Eminent domain should be defined as narrowly as possible so that it is restricted to truly public purposes.

What BB&T is against is using eminent domain for private development of private property. That's the key component: Private use is an abuse of eminent domain.

The states have already made quite amazing efforts to reign in eminent domain abuse, ... We hope and expect that state and local governments will continue to create strong safeguards against unchecked confiscation of property. After all, the Supreme Court has placed it entirely in the hands of state and local governments to ensure that eminent domain is not abused for private profit.

Eminent domain has been used historically very judiciously and mostly appropriately in North Carolina and other states. Our opposition is strictly based on our concern about the potential change in direction with eminent domain that the Supreme Court had opened that threatens private ownership of property.

The major point is to protect private homeowners from eminent domain and put major hurdles in the way of the government if they want to take your house. It's going to put an awful lot of obstacles in the way of eminent domain, especially for economic development.

Rep. Michael Lawlor

It's time for Deltona to decide if they want to use eminent domain for private or public development. I support asking Deltona voters to tell us their view on eminent domain.

I have always opposed the use of eminent domain strictly for economic development purposes. Eminent domain should be used in only the most unique of circumstances and be limited to a larger public interest.

The law in this area is too complicated to amend piecemeal. Resolving issues involving eminent domain will best be accomplished through study by a Temporary State Commission on Eminent Domain to assure that all viewpoints are represented and that all the issues involved in this area of the law receive careful consideration.

There's a certain percentage above fair market value that we can offer someone for their property. If they don't like the offer, eminent domain may be the only other option. We frown on the idea of eminent domain, and we've never abused it, but having it in our back pocket brings people to the bargaining table.

This is the side of eminent domain that never gets written about. This is why eminent domain is needed.

No one has ever taken the power of eminent domain lightly.
