Keon Alexander has come to this office with a problem. The city of Brooklyn, Michigan, recently sent him a notice stating that they intend take his home and surrounding property through an eminent domain action. Mr. Alexander suspected the city was going to try to take his home eventually, because the city is building a new park nearby, and they have already taken and destroyed several houses to prepare for the park project. Mr. Alexander explained that his house is different, though, since it is located just adjacent to the park project, unlike the houses that were located within the proposed park boundaries.

When he went down to city hall to ask why his house was included in the eminent domain action, someone at the City explained that they wanted to give his property to a private company, SportingPro, that intends to build a state-of-the-art sports complex next to the park. The city will not own any part of the complex, but they expect the tax revenues generated by the sports complex to help boost the city’s income enough to complete the park project. Mr. Alexander wants to know if the city is allowed to take his property for that purpose.
