Democratic Dissolution: Radical Experimentation In State Takeovers Of Local Governments, Michelle Wilde-Anderson
Democratic Dissolution: Radical Experimentation In State Takeovers Of Local Governments, Michelle Wilde-Anderson
Fordham Urban Law Journal
While state interventions to stabilize the finances of struggling municipalities date back to the Great Depression, the current fiscal crisis has brought a startling escalation in the powers granted to state intervention authorities. Aptly observed by Abby Goodnough in The New York Times, cities and states have tried “myriad ways of righting their fiscal ships as the recession plods on,” but until very recently, “locking the mayor out of City Hall [was] generally not one of them.” In 2010 and 2011, Michigan and Rhode Island, which have been watched closely by other states, dramatically reformed their laws governing state receiverships …

Table Annexed To Article: Admiral Cochrane's Dispatches From The Chesapeake Campaign In Rc Text Format (1814), Peter J. Aschenbrenner
Peter J. Aschenbrenner
On August 28 and September 2, 1814 Adm. F. I. Cochrane messaged private dispatches to Henry Bathurst, third Earl Bathurst, Secretary of State for War and the Colonies, who held this position from 1812 to 1817; Cochrane’s dispatches on the prospects for the 1814 Chesapeake campaign following the fall of Washington were decidedly gloomy. He wanted 4,000 more troops, sought permission to enlist black troops (resistance to tropical diseases was presumably the attraction), offered to launch a feint against Rhode Island in support of Canadian home defense, and generally cast about for ways to make his forces useful until his …

Constitutional Law-Congressional Powers-Validity Of The 1953 Submerged Lands Act, William D. Keeler
Michigan Law Review
In 1947 and 1950 the Supreme Court held that the coastal states had no property interest in the submerged lands lying seaward from the low water mark, whether ownership of this land was held by the state prior to admission into the Union or not, and that the federal government had paramount rights in and power over this land, including the resources of the soil beneath it. In 1953 Congress passed, and the President signed, the Submerged Lands Act, which vested in the coastal states title to and proprietary power over this land. Alabama and Rhode Island petitioned the Court …
Municipal Corporations-Power Of Board Of Appeals To Vary Application Of Zoning Ordinance
Municipal Corporations-Power Of Board Of Appeals To Vary Application Of Zoning Ordinance
Michigan Law Review
Although there was some dispute among the earlier authorities, it is the rule today that comprehensive zoning ordinances, if enacted under proper legislative authority, are constitutional and will be upheld in so far as they are reasonable in application. In order to give aggrieved property owners an opportunity to obtain relief upon the basis of the ordinance itself without attacking its constitutionality, it has become common practice to give the board of appeals the power to vary the operation of the ordinance in specific cases.
