2005 Senate Bill 693 ↩

House Roll Call 619: Passed

To prohibit the use of eminent domain by state or local governments to take private property and transfer it to a private entity for the primary benefit of that private entity, rather than for “the use or benefit” of the public. See <a href="http://www.michiganvotes.org/2006-HB-5060">House Bill 5060</a>, which contains details of the prohibition, and <a href="http://www.michiganvotes.org/Legislation.aspx?ID=41339">Senate Joint Resoluton E</a>, which will place the prohibition in the state Constitution if adopted by voters in November, 2006.
