Save the date: on Thursday, December 1, 2011 (1:00pm-2:30pm EST, 10:00am-11:30am PST) we’ll be presenting the on-line seminar “Eminent Domain: Redevelopment Challenges for Local Governnment – Navigating Federal Funding Requirements, Challenges for Public Utilities in Right-of-Way Projects, and Objections to Taking for Public Use.“
Joining me are colleagues Anthony Della Pelle (McKirdy & Riskin – New Jersey), J. Casey Pipes (Helmsing, Leach, Herlong, Newman & Rose – Alabama), Rick E. Rayl and Bradford Kuhn (Nossaman – California), and Mark M. Murakami (Damon Key Leong Kupchak Hastert – Hawaii).
Each member of the faculty should be well-known to our readers: Tony publishes the New Jersey Condemnation Law blog and is a frequent speaker at the annual ALI-ABA eminent domain program. Casey is with the Owners’ Counsel member firm from Alabama and Co-Chair of the ABA Litigation Section’s Condemnation, Land Use, and Zoning Law Committee. Rick and Brad produce the California Eminent Domain Report. Mark, of course, is our Damon Key partner-in-crime and a co-author of the ABA’s recently-published handbook on eminent domain.
We’ll cover issues related to public utility takings and right of way projects, federal law compliance for federal funding for transportation projects and for and relocation benefits, redevelopment issues in a post-Kelo world, and strategies for handling and raising objections to a taking.
