Saleet v. City of Lakewood IJ Defeats Eminent Domain Abuse in Lakewood, Ohio
“The justification the City had offered for the takings was that a new development would create more jobs and taxes, but keep this in mind: anyone’s home or small business would generate more taxes as a shopping mall. If that can justify such takings, then literally no home or business would be safe from this kind of abuse at the hands of government.”
