Eminent domain continues to be a hot discussion topic among the members of a countywide transportation committee.
Some committee members pointed out all the other members’ relished roundabouts would require property acquisition, making it clear that eminent domain may be a necessary evil in some form or fashion.
The committee hit a wall late last month in trucking its way through an exorbitant list of transportation recommendations after it was decided no projects that would require land acquisition would be discussed until a subcommittee presented its draft policy on major thoroughfare planning and eminent domain. The subcommittee is expected to present its work at the Kendall County, Boerne and Fair Oaks Transpiration Committee’s 2 p.m. Tuesday meeting at Boerne’s city hall.
