Kentucky HB795 amends economic development laws to require public notice before property condemnation.
Kentucky HB795 amends the Kentucky Revised Statutes to mandate that any governmental unit must provide proper public notice before condemning property. The notice must state the specific purpose for which the property is to be condemned. If the property is not developed within five years, the original owner can repurchase it at the price paid by the governmental unit. The bill also allows the original owner to recover costs and reasonable attorney's fees if the property is condemned.
