How do you get rid of the SOB?

What’s happening? The City of Smithtown NY wants to acquire via eminent domain the land of Oasis Gentleman’s Club (the SOB sexually oriented business).

Why is this important? Yes, a creative use of eminent domain- don’t like a business then acquire the land by eminent domain, or the threat thereof and build a park.

How will this be important? Imagine a town that doesn’t like underwater basket weavers, churn up some eminent domain projects and get to town on those basket weavers.
