Eminent Domain: Nemski’s Letter and Denn’s Response
Dear Lt. Governor:
At the Delaware Liberal Inaugural Ball, you asked bloggers to help keep you honest, to keep your feet to the fire. Well, Mr. Denn, I am happy to oblige.
On Monday, you held a press conference with representatives of the Delaware State Chamber of Commerce as well as the AFL-CIO and you asked the General Assembly to proceed with caution. Let me stop there for a moment, business leaders and union leaders getting together and agreeing on something? Why does this make me a bit uneasy? Business and unions have been at odds for so long and now they agree that amendments are needed for the eminent domain legislation. But I digress and I don’t expect you to speak for business and union leaders.
However I imagine you can speak to what you said. You asked the General Assembly to take the extra time to shape a compromise (WDEL). What is that you don’t like about the current legislation? What type of amendment(s) do you and the leaders of business and unions want?
To the untrained political eye, it could seem that the office of the Lt. Governor might be representing developers and not representing the wishes of the people of Delaware. Please let me know why I am wrong.
Sincerely,
nemski
Below the fold is the Lt. Govenor’s response.
