American Indian Sacred Religious Sites And Government Development: A Conventional Analysis In An Unconventional Setting, Mark S. Cohen

Michigan Law Review

For centuries, American Indians have regarded specific lands as essential to their livelihood, government, culture, and religion. Congress and the courts have at times recognized the important relationship between tribes and their lands. Recognition has not always coincided with protection; during the nineteenth century and part of the twentieth century a series of governmental actions resulted in the tribes surrendering title and possession to many of their ancestral lands. Recently, however, American Indians have become increasingly active litigants in a variety of contexts. In one set of cases, Indians challenged government development projects on public lands, contending that because the …

The Selling Out Of Mount Laurel: Regional Contribution Agreements In New Jersey's Fair Housing Act, Rachel Fox

Fordham Urban Law Journal

This Article outlines the origins of exclusionary zoning, the doctrine announced in Southern Burlington County NAACP v. Township of Mount Laurel and the emergence of Regional Contribution Agreements (RCAs) under New Jersey's Fair Housing Act. The author argues that, as implemented, RCAs thwart the Mount Laurel doctrine's explicit goal of revitalizing urban areas and its implicit goal of racial integration of suburban municipalities. The article concludes that, because the RCAs thwart some of the basic goals of the Mount Laurel doctrine, the New Jersey Fair Housing Act can no longer be described as a codification of that doctrine and substantial …

Maryland's Growing Pains: The Need For State Regulation, Philip J. Tierney

University of Baltimore Law Review

Over the past two decades, much of Maryland's landscape has been rapidly developed into residential uses. This rapid growth has been largely unanticipated and unplanned. This article reviews the current local regulatory process of land use and growth control and reveals the need for changes in the regulatory process with a case study of Montgomery County, Maryland. The author concludes that greater state involvement in the land use regulatory process is necessary in order to manage growth effectively.

The Public Trust Doctrine In Washington, A. Reid Allison Iii

Seattle University Law Review

This Article addresses questions of resource allocation and property rights, first, by presenting a brief description of the historical and legal foundation of coastal resource allocation in the United States: the “public trust doctrine.” Second, a survey of the Washington experience demonstrates, surprisingly, that a state whose 2,337 miles of marine coastline approximately equals the length of the entire remaining coastline of the contiguous western United States, has managed to establish a viable and responsive regulatory regime governing coastal resource use with scarcely a mention in its laws of the “public trust doctrine.”

A Synthesis And Integration Of Supreme Court Precedent Regarding The Regulatory Taking Of Land, John W. Ragsdale Jr

Faculty Works

In the post World War II era of rapid land development, emergent environmental problems, and heightened legislative response, the taking clause has proved to be the most pervasive and significant limitation on the power of government over private land usage. The dimensions and implications of this provision and the interpretive Supreme Court opinions have attracted the attention of numerous scholars whose efforts, usually, have been rather critical. The authors have often sought to question the logic, language and premises of fundamental opinions, to warn of the economic, moral and ecological consequences of portended judicial trends, to pose new taking tests …

The History Behind Hansberry V. Lee, 20 U.C. Davis L. Rev. 481 (1987), Allen R. Kamp

UIC Law Open Access Faculty Scholarship

This Article provides the factual background to Hansberry v. Lee, the famous class action case. During the early 1900's, Chicago's black population was kept effectively segregated, primarily through the use of racially restrictive covenants. However, in the 1930's, this system began to break down. The growth of the black population caused an increased demand for black housing, while the Depression reduced the market for white housing. It was at this time that Carl Hansberry bought a house that was covered by a restrictive covenant, generating a lawsuit to have the covenant enforced and the Hansberrys evicted.

Tracing the lawsuit as …
