Salem Country Club, Inc. v. Peabody Redevelopment Authority
Massachusetts Appeals Court
Decided January 17, 1986PublishedCited by 17 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtKass, J.
In assessing eminent domain damages sustained by Salem Country Club, Inc. (Salem), from the loss through a taking of about forty-two and a half acres, the trial judge, sitting without a jury, heard and considered evidence concerning the likelihood of public action and private land acquisition which would improve access to the land taken. Receiving and considering that evidence, the taking authority argues, was error. We affirm the judgment, insofar as it fixed the fair market value of the premises taken at $957,150. Interest will have to be recalculated.
