Lack Of Viable Residential Areas: DSN Example: owned land with piecemeal development of private lots, … Munkenbeck [a DSN consultant] raised the idea of using eminent domain as a way to assemble large tracts of vacant land for development…"(Medoff, 118) But, the DSN had to convince the city to delegate authority of eminent domain to them in order for the community to maintain control of the redevelopment plan. Eminent domain under Boston's Chapter 121A Project "is defined as 'any undertaking consisting of the construction in a blighted open, decadent or substandard area of decent, safe and sanitary residential … as shall be in the public interest, and the operation and maintenance of such buildings and facilities after construction.' A project may include the aacquisition, assembly and clearance of land, buildings or structures." (Medoff, 119) |
