    Norwood City Council decided Tuesday to take nine different properties by using eminent domain. The declaration from Norwood council means the homes and businesses near Edwards Road will be taken for a new development. All but nine homes and business owners have agreed to sell to a developer who is planning on a $125 million expansion of Rookwood Commons mall. Earlier Tuesday, those nine home and business owners filed a suit, refusing to sell saying their neighborhood isn't blighted. The neighbors still holding-out are asking a judge to step in and stop the city from going any further.
