Eminent domain is in the constitution for PUBLIC use, not private. Yes, but if the town lives off casino tax revenues? Is that not a PUBLIC use?

No, no it’s not. It’s still a private use, and it’s still using the power of the government to forcibly transfer property from one private person (the homeowner) to another (the developer/casino owner).
