New Category: Williamson County / Ripeness

Admin note: I've added a new category to the post classifications: Williamson County / Ripeness.  The recent Reagan case got me to thinking, and it seems that the issue is continually cropping up again after the concurring opinion of four Justices in San Remo Hotel, L.P. v. City & County of San Francisco, 545 U.S. 323 (2005), stating that the ripeness rule of Williamson County Regional Planning Comm'n v. Hamilton Bank, 473 U.S. 172 (1985) should be revisited and overruled.  Since cases dealing with the issue are becoming more frequent, it deserves its own category.

Here is a collection of a few of the past inversecondemnation.com posts on the subject:
