Eminent Domain & Land Grant Property.

Do Michigan Municipalities have the right to take Land Grant property without the property owner’s ability to fight the process or even receive compensation?

>If so, does this have a time frame to file a suit after the fact.

Thanks!

This was 2005
The Oakland Press: Auto/Business: Michigan property rights still safe (http://www.theoaklandpress.com/stories/062405/bus_20050624003.shtml)

This 2006
Kelo v. City of New London - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelo_v._New_London#Michigan)

Which is after the Kelo v New London precedent by the Supreme Court.

Unless it has changed you may be able to fight it.
