Nebraska Senator Pushing For Landowner Protections In Eminent Domain Bill
“Senator Annette Dubas sponsor of L.B. 152 says her legislation requires any entity using eminent domain to have all permits in place including a present plan and public purpose for using that land.
Dubas says her bill is a work in progress and she expects both sides to weigh in at tomorrow’s committee hearing on the measure.
She says the initial landowner concerns came up when the Keystone Pipeline project was debated and following that a need was shown for more comprehensive legislation.”
