3 Problems with Eminent Domain in Texas. Hello 2019 Legislative Session.

Texas and Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association’s Opinion: Texas landowners subsidize pipelines and powerlines says this happens in 3 ways:

• profits often outweigh the rights of landowners with some pipelines & transmission lines
  • agents may pocket any money budgeted that isn’t paid to land owners
  • disincentivizes fair offers to landowners
• Intimidation. The team of lawyers of pipelines and transmission line companies
• adequate offers are essential so landowners are treated like partners not pittances
