The Supreme Court�s July 2005 Kelo vs. The City of New London decision essentially upheld a city�s right to use its powers of eminent domain to take private property for economic development reasons. The backlash generated by this decision has been strong, swift and at times emotional. Property-rights advocates have led an outcry to stop �eminent domain abuses� and legislation has been discussed at the State level, and in Congress. In November 2005, the House of Representatives approved a bill by James Sensenbrenner (R � Wisconsin), that would penalize government agencies for using eminent domain for private economic development projects by cutting federal economic development funds for two years. The bill awaits the Senate action now.

Please join us as the Panelists discuss:
- What exactly was the Kelo case about, and what are the impacts of the Supreme Court�s action;
- How does the pending federal legislation impact development in New York City and impede the City�s efforts to develop affordable housing;
- How has and is eminent domain used in New York City;
- What role does eminent domain have in developing urban landscapes.
