Former Dallas Cowboys Real Estate Development = One Unhappy Landowner Facing Eminent Domain.

A Dallas man, who “wanted to stay where the hell he was and be left the hell alone,” is facing eminent domain to make way for a roadway for real estate development deal. That’s the jist of this Dallas Observer piece.

The piece says the public reason for the taking of his property is straightening an intersection 2 blocks away, but alludes to the real reason being a real estate development by former Cowboys.

Here’s what the landowner says transpired:

• Dallas Public Works recommended taking his property.
• One City Council meeting occured to approve it.
• The landowner says the process was not transperant and sent the message, ““Screw you very much.”
