The coastal community of Rivera Beach in Palm Beach County may use
eminent domain, if necessary, to claim 400 acres of land for the
project, The Washington Times reported Monday.
"This is a community that's in dire need of jobs, which has a median
income of less than $19,000 a year," Mayor Michael Brown said. "If we
don't use this power, cities will die."
The U.S. Supreme Court in June upheld the use of eminent domain for
economic purposes, ruling against a group of New London, Conn.,
homeowners fighting a proposed corporate development.
The City Council last week chose a New Jersey-based developer, Viking
Inlet Harbor Properties LLC, to oversee the project, which is expected
to displace 2,000 houses.
Viking has said it will pay at least the assessed values of homes and
businesses it buys.
Dana Berliner, a lawyer who represented the New London homeowners,
warned, "Once someone can be replaced, so something more expensive can
go where they were, every home and business in the country is subject
to taking by someone else."
