You have your local ordsprog

You have your local city government and your community redevelopment agencies who will tell you that they want to take private property because they want to do away with blight, they want to upgrade the neighborhood, ... I don't buy that.

Maxine Waters (1938-)

The decision says that local governments can take private property and give it to another entity, if the second is going to upgrade the property in some way. There is no reason why this would not apply to businesses. The only check remaining is the political dynamics of local government. To the extent that businesses do not have political clout, they will also be vulnerable.

This proposed condemnation may be the most extreme abuse of eminent domain in the country. North Hills is trying to seize a private golf course for the purpose of creating a private 'Village only' golf course. This has nothing to do with a master plan that promotes the public good or eliminating blight...Rather, it is a naked grab for private property in an apparent effort to satisfy the private desires of a few elected officials.

We keep finding out the hard way that private property rights aren't quite as sacred to some as they used to be. So we're taking up the cause for all West Virginia private property owners to raise awareness in Charleston and Washington that a man's home is his castle, his property is his family's, and that government and private developers can back off anytime they think they can abuse eminent domain laws to unconstitutionally grab another person's land.

We look forward to working closely with the Penguins as well as state and local officials as we move through the application process. Redevelopment of the Lower Hill and Uptown Districts will return the neighborhood to the community, and funding a new multi-purpose arena will keep the Penguins in Pittsburgh, making this project a win/win for the entire community. At the Isle, we believe that downtown Pittsburgh will become the best entertainment venue in the region.

The question is, are you going to give a single property owner veto power over the redevelopment of an entire neighborhood?

Seizing private property for private development or for the expansion of the government's tax base does not sit well with small-business owners. NFIB will continue to work closely with the Legislature to implement protections for private-property owners.

The Pennsylvania senate bill is the most comprehensive legislation in the country. It slams the door on runaway eminent domain abuse and completely redefines the overly permissive definition of 'blight' that has been repeatedly used as an excuse to take property from one private citizen and give it to another private citizen.

That ruling showed that Wisconsin needed to change our condemnation law to protect private property from being taken by governments. No one should be forced by government to give up their private property just for the sake of economic development.

Our country was founded on the idea that the primary reason for bringing together a government is to protect private property. We remain hopeful that there is a compromise opportunity with the county to keep the property in private ownership.

What the bill does is increase the value of what a local government has to pay to get rid of blight.

Microsoft is an intellectual-property company. By extending the reach of IP Ventures through government agencies, we believe new businesses will bring more technology to market faster, and they'll also contribute back to local economies.

Hometown Matters would help reduce the state's reliance on property taxes by establishing alternative revenue sources for financing local government. It would also create more efficient local government. Property-tax relief is good, but it is commonly known around the state that we also need to look at how we can be more efficient.

Pex Tufvesson developed the music program Noisetracker. Obviously, we're competing against a city's hockey team. We're offering a project that is the redevelopment of a neighborhood, which is much different in scope than a new arena with a casino.

At Bank of America, we recognize that in order for a community to remain healthy and economically vibrant, we need to invest in that community by promoting and creating neighborhood excellence. Through our support for the Neighborhood Excellence 400, we can demonstrate the company's model for creating positive change in neighborhoods and communities through private partnerships, philanthropic investment, volunteerism and community development.
