Eminent domain hearings began today at the statehouse. Not only do Indiana lawmakers want to make it tougher for local governments to take private property, they also want to make it retroactive. If passed and signed by the Governor, HB 1010 would be effective as of November 23 of last year. That would of course impact the current dispute between NK Hurst and the Stadium Building Authority. The Authority filed suit against NK Hurst on the last business day of 2005. The authority needs much of the land NK is on for parking for the new stadium and convention center. Stay tuned to this one. I’ll try to have an update later today.
