Bill Summary

This bill would supplement the "Eminent Domain Act of 1971," P.L.1971, c.361 (C.20:3-1 et seq.), to provide that just compensation for an easement over a portion of beachfront property condemned for the purpose of dune construction or beach replenishment must include consideration of the increase in value to the entire property due to the added safety and property protection provided by the dune or replenished beach. The bill would also provide that any additional rights of the public to access property held in the public trust arising as a result of the easement, or the dune construction or beach replenishment, would not be considered to cause a diminution in the value of the entire property.
