VDOT takes low road with bait-and-switch tactics on land grabs
“Virginia Beach Circuit Court began hearing this week the case of James and Janet Ramsey, and their eminent domain battle against the state highway agency.
The Virginia Department of Transportation in 2009 set aside nearly $250,000 to cover the cost of the Ramseys’ property and damage.
Now, the Ramseys say, they may have to give back nearly $160,000 after VDOT appraised the property a second time a few years later.”
