Yes it’s a forced sale.

But America can’t invent anything out of thin air before God. It turns out to be as fragile as that thin air.

As I keep on reminding people. If you want to know who owns your house, stop paying the taxes.

[Reagan Disciple]

I understand the tax angle, but if the local gov’t wants to run a road through my house for the benefit of their local budget and they force me to sell my house or worse, consider it blight and simply run it over, then where are we?

For every nice payout there's a blight issue. You can't just have one and forget the other.
