SUMMARY:

Eminent domain; condemnation by a housing authority. Requires the commissioners to hear evidence on the value of the condemned property including, but not limited to, the owner's appraisal. Currently, consideration may be given to the effect that any pending application for a zoning change, special use permit application, or variance application may have on the value of the property. Housing authorities are also required to provide at least one of the property owners notice of their legal rights and an appraisal conducted by a licensed real estate appraiser. The bill also provides that the notice from the locality shall not be the basis for eligibility for relocation benefits.
