The News Journal has updated its online story with Minner’s statement to lawmakers as to her reasons for vetoing the Eminent Domain Bill.
[T]he governor wrote that the bill could restrict the state’s ability to get an easement on private property for beach preservation or other purposes and be more costly to taxpayers.
Attorney Rich Abbott, who is representing the Wilmington landowners in the lawsuit, said Minner’s legal reasoning is wrong, and that the bill “would not prohibit the taking of easements.”
Still nothing from Carney.
