I found out this morning that the "Trans-Texas Corridor" is going to take about 50 - 60 acres of my farm. The state of Texas is going to imminent domain the land and then the corridor will be built with private money and be a toll road. It is going to be 1200 feet wide. It will have a passenger frwy.,truck frwy.,High speed rail, freight rail and utility corridor from mexico to Oklahoma. I will be sitting right on the edge of this noisy piece of crap and the roads will be blocked on 2 sides of me with no access (toll road).
I need some advice on how to keep from being taken to the cleaners worse than I already am. Has anyone had any experience with immenent domain? How do I get a fair deal on my property? I will be boxed in and there can be no future development on the back of my place because there will be rail lines and no access from that side.
I am sick about this. My farm is in the middle of nowhere & thats where I planned to build and stay. As far as I am concerned the govt. taking your property and turning it over to a private investor is STEALING. There is no integrity within the Govt. anymore Property rights used to be sacred in the USA ...not anymore. Gorilla

One of us would sit on the left fender (away from the clutch) and other would sit on the gas tank and hold onto the crankcase breather pipe.
