Eminent domain refers to a state power, granted by the Fifth Amendment to the US Constitution, through which the state can purchase a private property and direct it to public use, in exchange for a fair compensation for its owner.
<u>According to this definition, the constitutional scenarios are the following: </u>
- A state extends a needed highway and pays fair prices for houses that are in the way of the planned expansion
- A town needs to build a fire station in order to meet city ordinances, and paid fair market price for the lot seized, but did not out bid competitors
<u>Both are legal transactions because the previous privately owned spaces were converted for public use and a fair price was paid to the former owners (fair is OK, it does not need to be the largest price offered)</u>
<u>The other two are therefore illegal transactions:</u>
- A town wants to build luxury condos by a waterfront, so it takes older houses down to make room --> It is illegal because the purpouse of taking down the older house is not related into converting the space for public use
- A town needs to enlarge a school, and does not pay for the houses it tears down to do so because taxes from that district do not cover the cost of reimbursing the homeowners. --> It is illegal because a fair compensation has to be paid to the owner of the property.
