State Y is planning a new superhighway. The traffic in state Y does not require any new roads. However, the state wishes to be the first in the U.S. to have a wild animal park running down the center of its highway. This will require 40% more land than
ordinary superhighways. Claiming the power of eminent domain, the State has attempted to take Greg's house. Greg has filed suit to prevent this. How will the court decide this case and why?
The Fifth Amendment provides that private property may not be taken for public use without just compensation. A zoo type of project would be a public use. The fact that the superhighway is not required would not result in a verdict in Bob's favor. Of course, the state would have to pay Bob for his property.
