House Moves to Protect San Diego Property Owners from Eminent Domain Seizure
House Agricultural Committee passed an eminent domain reform bill on Friday. The bill will now go to the House floor for a vote.
While many say that the bill does not go far enough to protect property owners after the Supreme Court's decision in Kelo, it would be an improvement.
San Diegans need as much protection against government seizure of property to increase tax revenues. While there may be civic improvements as a result, the possiblity of abuse and overreaching is just too likely.
