I'm ApexNerd, lets get back to the countdown of the goals of the Growth Management Act.
Our Certified Priority Criteria started goals number 4 and 5 in a virtual tie. Which goal prevailed?
At number 5 on our Countdown...
Property Rights
The Language
"Private property shall not be taken for public use without just compensation having been made. The property rights of landowners shall be protected from arbitrary and discriminatory actions."
The Score
Priority Index: 122.2
The Reason
This goal clearly comes into play in all jurisdictions, but only has a direct impact on property owners.
The imperative language in this goal is undeniable. It doesn't get much more imperative than the word "shall."
Which goal will come in at #4 on our Countdown? What could it be?
Stay tuned...
