Einent Domain "reform"

The state legislature has come up with its new compromise bill to "reform" eminent domain and TIF. This will probably be the one that passes, since virtually all the Republicans seem to be co-sponsors. It's a pretty long bill, and I haven't had the chance to reflect on the details, but it is certainly an improvement on the current open season on private property. Whether it's adequate remains to be seen.

To read it yourself, it's HB-1441.
