Eminent Domain Early Threats of Intimidation:

Early Examples Of
CITY MANAGER, CRA DIRECTOR, TOM SCHWAB'S THREATS TO USE EMINENT DOMAIN AGAINST PROPERTY OWNERS
THIS AND AND

Please recall that Mr. Schwab has said on and off that Eminent Domain was not used in the negotiation of property procurement by the city or the Jacobsen Family Holdings LLC. Here are the example of letters received by individual property owners, way back in 2004. Was the City Council/City Redevelopment Agency Board aware of Mr. Schwab's actions? Did they sanction the actions?

These are the tactics which limited the negotiation position of the Property Owners. The Use of the Power of the City Redevelopment agency makes this a Redevelopment Project. This is another example of a fine mess Mr. Schwab has gotten us all in. We the City-zens and the Property Owners have been ill served by Mr. Schwab and the Council if they were aware of these letters being issued, and their content.
