Court Actions Contesting The Nonjudicial Foreclosure Of Deeds Of Trust In Washington, Joseph L. Hoffman

Washington Law Review

The basic objectives of Washington real property law and of the Deed of Trust Act can be achieved only through a systematic approach to court actions contesting the nonjudicial foreclosure of deeds of trust. This Comment proposes judicial interpretations and legislative amendments designed to maintain the efficiency of the nonjudicial foreclosure process while enhancing both the fairness of the process and the stability of the land title system.

Taking Precedents In The Tidelands: Refocusing On Eminent Domain, W. Wade Berryhill

Law Faculty Publications

The focus of this article is on the state's power of eminent domain as a means of controlling the use of scarce coastal resources. However, in order to determine whether this rather drastic exercise of governmental power is the most appropriate means of effecting its purposes, the state or its delegate must consider the alternatives. This article therefore will first examine briefly other possible means of control; it will then discuss the substantive and procedural requirements of eminent domain; and finally, it will consider problems of post-acquisition resource management.

Subdivision Exactions In Washington: The Controversy Over Imposing Fees On Developers, Martha Lester

Washington Law Review

This Comment briefly traces the history of subdivision regulation in Washington as a means of imposing conditions on developers or exacting land dedication or fee payment from developers. It discusses the Hillis Homes decision and analyzes the relationship between the new state statute and other statutory land use regulations. This Comment concludes that, although a municipality's authority to impose development fees has been limited, existing statutory authority still allows a municipality to impose conditions on subdivision development.

Public Land Banking And Mount Laurel Ii — Can There Be A Symbiotic Relationship?, Cassandra Jones Havard

All Faculty Scholarship

The story behind the litigation that produced two decisions in Southern Burlington County NAACP v. Township of Mount Laurel may accurately be told in terms of plans having gone awry. The New Jersey Supreme Court invalidated the two attempts by Mount Laurel to regulate land through the implementation of fiscal zoning ordinances. In its most recent decision, Mount Laurel II, the court imposed upon communities a state constitutional obligation to provide adequate housing opportunities for low- and moderate-income families. Mount Laurel II thus defines the constitutional limitations on a municipality's power to regulate land. It also establishes a supporting corollary: …

Mcmillan House, Susie Van Kirk

Susie Van Kirk Papers

The architectural integrity of the McMillan House has been negatively impacted by several significant alterations. These include the addition in the northeast corner, the front door, the louvered window in the upstairs of the south wall, and the window shutters. Other alterations have occurred, but they are not particularly intrusive and could remain without impinging upon the building's architecture.

The David Simpson House, Susie Van Kirk

Susie Van Kirk Papers

The David Simpson House is recommended for historic designation as a significant example of settlement-era architecture. Built in 1877, the house is a visible reminder of the community's settlement period and a notable example of the popular front-facing gable house-type.

High Society: The Building Height Limitation On Baltimore's Mt. Vernon Place, Garrett Power

Faculty Scholarship

The "Anti Skyscraper" Law of 1904 is often described as Maryland's first zoning law and one of the first zoning laws in the United States. But there is more. Behind this dusty statute is a story of speculation, selfishness, collusion and changing social values, which takes a century and a half to unfold and which has something to say about the role of government in regulating the use of land.

Taking Precedents In The Tidelands: Refocusing On Eminent Domain, W. Wade Beryyhill, Susan S. Williams

University of Richmond Law Review

"Buy land, they're not making any more," Will Rogers supposedly once recommended. If he did, then Will had never taken a good look at the shore: Over the years, millions of acres of tidelands have been dredged and filled, many to provide new recreational facilities and vacation homesites.

Local Government Liability In Virginia For Negligent Inspection Of Buildings, Structures And Equipment, Matthew W. Broughton

University of Richmond Law Review

There is a growing trend in Virginia, as well as in many other states, for injured citizens to hold local governments liable for personal injuries and loss of property resulting from the negligent inspection by building officials of privately owned buildings and structures. The recent abrogation of the doctrine of sovereign immunity in the majority of jurisdictions has served to encourage such litigation, but abrogation alone has proven to be no guarantee of recovery for negligent inspection. Rather, the majority of jurisdictions have continued to enjoy immunity by asserting that building inspectors perform a discretionary governmental function for which no …
