[AsburyPark] Eminent domain evictions shouldn't be allowed for private gain
Eminent domain evictions shouldn't be allowed for private gain Published in the Asbury Park Press 09/20/05 BY MICHAEL J. PANTER AND ROBERT L. MORGAN The use of eminent domain has always involved a delicate balance between public benefit and property rights. Through a series of Supreme Court decisions, that balance has tipped away from property rights, and the once-clear definition of public benefit has been gradually broadened to suit the interests of municipal governments and powerful developers. Eminent domain is leaving an increasingly bitter taste upon the American tongue as more homeowners see their rights trampled. It is imperative that we act to protect our communities and keep this power from being abused for private gain. Eminent domain is appropriate when used fairly, responsibly and as a last resort. Before invoking this power, there must be a good-faith attempt at negotiating the sale of the properties in question. Homeowners must be justly compensated. Most importantly, the land should be used in a way that undeniably benefits the community, such as the construction of a road, bridge or school. The U.S. Supreme Court's recent ruling in Kelo vs. New London has blown the doors open for further abuse of homeowners' rights, making the need for state-level regulation of eminent domain usage obvious and urgent. We request that our colleagues in the Legislature support a bill we have introduced to protect homeowners. Assembly bill 4392 will ensure eminent domain is reserved for situations that adhere to its original intent. Our bill would prohibit the use of eminent domain for the acquisition of residential and commercial properties that are legally occupied and maintained in accordance with applicable codes and standards. Under this bill, no families would see their perfectly inhabitable homes demolished for the construction of private office buildings, mega-stores or shopping centers. Eminent domain is still used today in some cases for the same reasons it was written into the constitution. Municipal governments invoke it to build roads, schools, access to utilities and, in general, to improve their residents' quality of life. These projects have undeniable benefit and value to communities, meeting the standard for eminent domain usage, and largely justifying the inconvenience they create. With Kelo vs. New London, the Supreme Court changed the standard test for the appropriate use of eminent domain from whether the property will be taken for public use to whether the taking of the property would benefit the public. The court's vague and dubious phrasing has gutted the ethical standard that has historically checked the power of eminent domain. An economic project that generates revenue and creates jobs fits the new definition of public use, because these benefits will theoretically pass to the entire community. There is no longer any legal distinction between urban-renewal plans that create great private reward and, for example, the construction of a public utility. A modest neighborhood could be declared blighted and replaced by condominiums or commercial property because those projects might generate higher tax revenues. If the standard for eminent domain is whether the local government can make more tax revenue from the existing property or from a new development, in most cases the new development would prevail. It is fundamentally unfair to evict homeowners for someone else's private gain. This practice understandably causes people to lose faith in government. The problems inherent in eminent domain are only exacerbated by the broad discretion the Supreme Court has given in its application. Expropriation does not create public property, as the land (and the lion's share of any benefit) is often turned over to a different private owner. As it is, municipalities often fail to truly engage in good-faith negotiation, and court rulings rarely provide satisfactory compensation to the evicted residents. After all, there is no financial appraisal for the hardship of losing one's home, especially one that has been inhabited by a family for generations. Economically disadvantaged communities and communities of color are most often the victims of eminent domain abuse. Few can afford the legal battle for their homes. With the standard for eminent domain loosened, the battle seems like a futile one. The silver lining in Kelo is the window the ruling left open for states to regulate the specific conditions of eminent domain use. Already, legislators in 12 states have introduced legislation that narrows the definition of public use in an effort to eliminate private property being taken for private use. Eminent domain remains a necessary tool for communities, but our bill creates a necessary and vital restriction on the concept of public use to ensure this government power is applied responsibly and appropriately. We ask that our fellow legislators join us in sponsoring our legislation. We
[AsburyPark] Re: Big Announcement at AP City Hall
Hello folks. I'll fill you in on the Big Announcement at City Hall this morning. That press conference was followed up by a similar one in Trenton. You can probably catch it on News 12 New Jersey tonight and in most of the State's papers tomorrow. There was a great deal of press at both conferences. Here is the deal, but I want you to know first this is not a partisan event; I'm hoping it becomes multi-partisan so everyone of every political persuasion and independents will want to involve themselves in it: New Jersey gives out Homeland Security money to the various towns in New Jersey. Obviously they are supposed to spread it out according to need. There is millions of dollars at issue. Asbury Park applied for a mere $200,000.00 of these funds. After all, our entire eastern border is one of America's vulnerable spots (the ocean) and our police force is currently understaffed. We are subject to storms and flooding. As we all know from the past weeks, local government must be prepared to deal with calamities because the Federal government is not the first responder to disasters. We are. Of course you can guess how much Asbury Park was awarded: $0.00. Not even a phone call was made to tell us either. The situation gets worse. The 11th Legislative District is 25 towns from Atlantic Highlands down to Brielle, almost all of them on the Shore. Well, those towns together were awarded $0.00 in Homeland Security Funds. Just north of us in the 12th District, check out some of these numbers: Freehold was awarded $157,000.00; Manalapan was awarded $187,000; Marlboro was awarded $196,000. I'm not begrudging these towns getting the money, but it makes no sense that the Shore towns get nothing. Why did this happen? I have to talk about parties here for a moment, but I promise I will get right off it because I won't let this get partisan. The Democrats have the Governor's chair and the legislature. If you look at what happened statewide: 90% OF THE MONEY WENT TO DEMOCRAT DISTRICTS; 10% TO REPUBLICAN DISTRICTS The 11th is a Republican District so Asbury Park and the other 24 towns got $0.00 (Freehold Manalapan and Marlboro are in the Democrat controlled 12th). The Press Conferences I had today in AP and Trenton was attended by the AP Fire and Police Departments as well as Democrat and Republican elected officials from around the 11th District. Here is the plan: I am suing the Governor and the Attorney General seeking an injunction from turning over the money, to give all the towns a chance to have the funds reallocated. I am going to employ the services of Drinker, Biddle and Reath, one of New Jersey's top law firms regarding public financing (they successfully sued a prior administration over a funding issue and prevailed). As all of you know, Justice is open to the public like the Ritz Carlton is open to the public. It costs money. The last time Drinker Biddle sued the state the fees were approximately $100,000.00. Therefore, that is my fundraising target. The purpose of both press conferences today was to request donations for this lawsuit. I am seeking the help of people of all political persuasions to donate, as this is not a partisan endeavor. If you think AP should share in the Homeland Security money, then I hope you will donate. I realize Asbury Park has several Katrina fundraising efforts going on now, but I hope you will make some allowance for your own Homeland Security needs by donating to this fund. If you wish to donate, call my offices at 732-869-1500. Thank you in advance for your cooperation. Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.

Simply speechless! I'm glad I didn't take off a half day's work to see the spectacle of a lawyer suing to cut more pork off of a useless bureaucracy that's quickly bleeding the government coffers dry. I'll gladly give back my family's share of the $187,000 given to my town if they agree that I AM NOT a threat to the nation and agree to stop the damn random searches of me, my wife, and my kids. You're right. This is not a partisan event. When the government is handing out money like a degenerate gambler on a bender, it's every persons God-given right to hold their hand out and loot or carry away as much as they possibly can. I'm ashamed BB. How you can call yourself the Conservative Voice of Asbury Park while standing in line with everyone else at the printing press is completely beyond me.

Just north of us in the 12th District, check out some of these numbers: Freehold was awarded $157,000.00; Manalapan was awarded $187,000; Marlboro was awarded $196,000. I'm not begrudging these towns getting the money, but it makes no sense that the Shore towns get nothing. Why did this happen? I have to talk about parties here for a moment, but I promise I will get right off it because I won't let this get partisan. The Democrats have the Governor's chair and the legislature. If you look at what happened statewide: 90% OF THE MONEY WENT TO DEMOCRAT DISTRICTS; 10% TO REPUBLICAN DISTRICTS The 11th is a Republican District so Asbury Park and the other 24 towns got $0.00 (Freehold Manalapan and Marlboro are in the Democrat controlled 12th). The Press Conferences I had today in AP and Trenton was attended by the AP Fire and Police Departments as well as Democrat and Republican elected officials from around the 11th District. Here is the plan: I am suing the Governor and the Attorney General seeking an injunction from turning over the money, to give all the towns a chance to have the funds reallocated. I am going to employ the services of Drinker, Biddle and Reath, one of New Jersey's top law firms regarding public financing (they successfully sued a prior administration over a funding issue and prevailed). As all of you know, Justice is open to the public like the Ritz Carlton is open to the public. It costs money. The last time Drinker Biddle sued the state the fees were approximately $100,000.00. Therefore, that is my fundraising target. The purpose of both press conferences today was to request donations for this lawsuit. I am seeking the help of people of all political persuasions to donate, as this is not a partisan endeavor. If you think AP should share in the Homeland Security money, then I hope you will donate. I realize Asbury Park has several Katrina fundraising efforts going on now, but I hope you will make some allowance for your own Homeland Security needs by donating to this fund. If you wish to donate, call my offices at 732-869-1500. Thank you in advance for your cooperation. Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~-- Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.

Why don't you sue our city council and Asbury Partners? The REAL money we should have gotten for our assets would be more than the entire state had to split up. Its more like Homeland Insecurity if you ask me. The money should go to the places of real threat, major cities, nuclear reactor sites, water supplies, etc. Backshit, ND gets more per capitia than place like NYC, JC, etc. Why don't do speak out on the real issues that affect your neighbors? You need go no further than the boardwalk and Asbury Partners' offices. You have the nerve to caution Skip about going to small claims court over the Deal Lake boat landing? Yahoo!
