This study will investigate how the hypothetical construction of the Kingsford stadium would affect the housing values of the surrounding areas. It will analyse property values from other areas and compare them with values after a stadium has been built in that area. The methodology of ‘Hedonic analyses’ are used to assess the value differentials between dwellings in the close proximity to the site and compare that to similar builds in different areas. The impact of economic and social factors…

Eminent domain, the government taking one’s property for a just compensation, and using the land for a public use, can destroy someone’s life or an entire neighborhood. If the government can take control of anyone’s land, the government can take control of the people. Most Americans would say that their home is a cherished land with many extravagant and astonishing memories of their past. Now ask the same Americans if they would be “ok” with someone swooping in and just taking all of those…

the U.S thought. Eminent domain was one of the first powers given to the government from the Fifth Amendment. Even though it was one of the first powers that was given to the government, it has become one of the most abused recently in numerous court cases. The vast majority of them end with the government winning with a rebuttal stating that no one can take property without due process of law or just compensation. Even in the past, the U.S government has used eminent domain to acquire property…

Land has been an integral part of culture since the beginning of time. From the Homestead Act to the modern real estate development age, we care about where we live. We showed through the American Revolution that we are willing to fight for the land we love. However, under the Takings Clause of the 5th Amendment we are prevented from this specific action, fighting for something we love. The Takings Clause states, “nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation."…

of eminent domain and visa versa for mutual benefits. Seizure, without prior offer to you, the owner, exhibits zero attention to the owner’s interest. I agree the fact that it is (was) your (future) home means it ought to hold all definitions of home. No deed stipulates how many times one has to be at their home. We ought to have statues that secure us from losing our home(s) and there are no limits to the number of homes an individual may own. Case: City’s grounds for eminent domain. No…

In the Kelo v. New London court case, Suzette Kelo and eight petitioners opposed a eminent domain taking “projected to create in excess of 1,000 jobs, to increase tax and other revenues, and to revitalize an economically distressed city” (“Kelo” 472).

Others claimed that their “investment properties,” because they were not “blighted or otherwise in poor…

OTHER SECTION It is clear that Gaye’s composition on paper is protected, but it is also clear that the style Gaye’s composition reflects is an idea that is not protected, pursuant to section 102 (b). Copyright Act of 1976, 17 U.S.C. §§ 102(b) (2012). The question then becomes, whether Appellants attempted to reflect the style of Gaye’s piece, or whether they attempted to build on an already completed composition to create a derivative song that paralleled the original, pursuant to section 103.…

Eminent domain is a public policy issue that has been around for centuries. As long as government can exercise its power, eminent domain has been a debated topic. In most cases, eminent domain is used to provide essential public goods while in other cases it has been used against private entities. Normally, when a unit of government wants to acquire private property the government attempts to negotiate the purchase of the property for fair value. If the landowner does not want to sell, the…
