In an editorial laying out why the Dallas Morning News opposes the Brazos Valley Council opposition to high-speed rail, there’s quite a statement about eminent domain.
From the editorial: ” But the eminent domain scare tactic is getting old.”
Why is the “eminent domain scare tactic getting old?”
- eminent domain is a quagmire for both sides
- because condemning entities want to settle, that could strengthen land owner negotiations over price
- landowners will still get to use their property
