Property and Business Owners Learn About Eminent Domain
Businesses and property owners in Battle Ground, Washington facing eminent domain, condemnation, and relocation caused by a highway widening, are getting help by attending an Eminent Domain Workshop.
Whether a business is relocating, or a property owner or business is reconfiguring their existing location, the best practices for getting compensation for their costs from the government agency are similar. To cover both subjects, this workshop has been designed as follows:
The goals of the workshop are to:
The agenda for this three-hour workshop follows:
Purpose of Workshop
The purpose of this workshop is to give these businesses and property owners a condensed education about the eminent domain process, more than would be received from other sources, so participants can make informed decisions. The workshop will not cover all of the details and decisions that will face each individual, however, participants will receive valuable, relevant, and usable information that will improve their outcome with the eminent domain process well beyond the value of their time and cost of the workshop.
An additional and important advantage for the workshop participants is they will begin networking together, which will help them compare notes during the eminent domain process, to help maintain consistent treatment. This is helpful because, as much as they try, the public agency does not always treat everyone the same. This particularly happens when the agency has several agents working on the project, agents are reassigned to other projects, or because the agents do not fully understand your needs or situation.
Martyn guarantees each participant’s satisfaction of attending the workshop with a full refund at the end of the workshop to anyone not satisfied.
Are you and your neighbors facing eminent domain?
Improved Eminent domain success can be achieved by attending a workshop. You can also participate in the design of a workshop for your group’s specific needs, location, and situation.
