...turning it over to a private developer is an acceptable way to use eminent domain, if that transfer would be to a use that generates more tax income.

You or I could constitute a "private developer" if the home we were going to build brought in more revenue than the current occupant.

Good heavens. I'm still in shock over this ruling and it's only getting worse by the minute.

If we had the money, and said to the county "Hey, let me get all of those houses and I will build a nice condo that will generate $x more taxes", yes we could.
