Bristol Redevelopment & Housing Authority v. Farmbest, Inc.

Upon the petition of Bristol Redevelopment and Housing Authority (Authority), a political subdivision created under Chapter 310, Acts of Assembly (1938) and ordinances of the City of Bristol, to condemn property in the business section of Bristol owned by Farmbest, Inc., (Farmbest), the trial court entered a final decree, confirming the report of the Commissioners which awarded $492,800 for the taking and $43,419 compensation for “the reasonable cost of removing or relocating items of personal property”. By appropriate exceptions and assignments of error, Authority challenged the latter award.
