Conference organizers, faculty and/or moderators included University of Colorado School of Law professors Lawrence J. MacDonnell, David H. Getches and James N. Corbridge, Jr.

Water organizations in the western United States range from small, traditional acequia associations to large metropolitan water suppliers.

All are feeling the pressures of change in the region--growing urban populations, environmental concerns, and calls for public participation.

This year's summer program will examine how water organizations are adapting to these pressures for change. Speakers drawn from urban, agricultural, and community organizations will share their experiences …

Regulatory Takings and Resources: What Are the Constitutional Limits? (Summer Conference, June 13-15)

Governmental regulation for environmental protection and other important public purposes can affect the manner in which land and natural resources are developed and used. The U.S. constitution (and most state constitutions) prohibit the government from "taking" property without payment of compensation. Originally intended to apply to situations where the government physically seized private property …

Examining The Current State Of Post-Comprehensive Plan Land-Use Decision Making In Florida: A Property Owner's Guide To The Local Government Comprehensive Planning And Land Development Regulation Act, John E. Fennelly

St. Thomas Law Review

Understanding the landscape of Florida's land use law is becoming increasingly difficult. In two recent companion cases decided by the Florida Supreme Court, judicial review under the Local Government Comprehensive Planning and Land Development Regulation Act clashes with the Act and its stated intent, placing further uncertainty upon the shifting terrain which already existed. This article analyzes Board of County Commissioners of Brevard County v. Snyder (Snyder R1), and Parker v. Leon County (Parker III), and argues that more confusion is generated by these decisions than is resolved. Snyder II represents the court's grappling for a resolution of the district …

Privatization In Eastern Germany: A Comprehensive Study, Rainer Frank

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

One of the greater problems arising from the reunification of Germany has been the privatization of land in eastern Germany. Initially, the principle that shaped the privatization policies was restitution, the idea that land unlawfully taken by the former East German government should be returned to its rightful owner. A second goal of the privatization program was to stimulate investment in the economy of eastern Germany. These two goals, however, have conflicted. The result has been a policy that has created confusion with regard to the ownership of property and clear title. This Article examines two series of amendments, in …

Article 27 And Mexican Land Reform: The Legacy Of Zapata's Dream, James J. Kelly Jr.

Journal Articles

This student note takes an historical look at indigenous land tenure in Mexico and the role that limited alienability has played in sustaining indigenous agriculture from the time of the Aztecs up until the reforms enacted by the Salinas administration in Mexico in the early 1990's. As the piece was in edits, the Zapatista rebellion broke out and the text was amended to note the role that land tenure played in the uprising.

The Victims Of Nimby, Michael B. Gerrard

Faculty Scholarship

It is a syndrome, a pejorative, and an acronym of our times: NIMBY, or Not In My Back Yard. It has a political arm, NIMTOO (Not In My Term Of Office), an object of attack, LULUs (Locally Undesired Land Uses), and an extreme form, BANANA (Build Absolutely Nothing Anywhere Near Anyone). Acronyms aside, however, the question remains as to whether or not NIMBY has victims. Is anyone hurt by NIMBY?

Many leading voices in the environmental justice movement believe that minority communities are victims of NIMBY. For example, Professor Robert D. Bullard has written that "[t]he cumulative effect of not-in-my-backyard …
