No wonder state Sen. Tom McClintock, R-Thousand Oaks, is confident his push for an initiative to sharply limit eminent domain will make the ballot and win. He doesn't even have to buy ads. All he has to do is sit back and watch the oblivious redevelopment bullies keep making his case for him one crazy "blight" designation at a time. McClintock Ping!
Please freepmail me if you want on or off this list.

...National City's plan to use its powers of eminent domain to force the Daily family to sell a parcel the family leases to the Mossy family for one of its thriving car dealerships...after a mysterious epiphany in which members suddenly realized the site suffered from a heretofore undetected case of "visual blight."So they're gonna put a car dealership on the land. Talk about blight...

Glad to hear that Tom's working on this. The legislature is too corrupt to give up one iota of power, and the governator is too beholden to developers to tackle this topic. THIS, not bogus stem-cell projects or multibillion dollar park bonds, is what the initiative system was developed for.

Wow. Thanks for this post.
Nat'l City is right next door.
Have always bought our cars from the Mile O' Cars there.
Roger Hedgecock will no doubt be all over this today.

a June U.S. Supreme Court ruling that upheld local governments' right to use eminent domain solely for economic reasonsIt didn't "uphold" that "right". It created it.

Can somebody explain to me what a "Model School Development Agency" is doing initiating residential real estate development schemes?
To: GeneralStorm
I don't think this has anything to do with National City Bank.

Do they publish the addresses of these politicians? It would be great to go into their hoods for a massive protest. Its the only way they will know they cant hide behind the dirty robes.

The Hoods in their hoods make freeping not too safe.
I avoid Nat'l City at night, and usually in the daytime, too.

Exactly where this initiative belongs - on the ballot. We can't depend on "decisions" from the California state legislators anymore. They always vote against Californians. McClintock is a breath of fresh air!

Well, this is an interesting position for National City to take: "This site is visually blighted. We're going to seize it and sell it so that the car dealership that's blighting it can continue to do so."
