Blight + no Transportation Project =No Eminent Domain

Where is this happening? north St. Louis County Missouri

What is happening? A blighted building cannot be sized by eminent domain

Why can’t eminent domain be used?

  • the county issues the blight citations
  • the property is technically in a municipality
  • eminent domain is limited in the scenario to only transportation projects
