    A group of land/business owners from Willets Point are gearing up for a battle with the Economic Development Corporation (EDC) at the final City Council oversight hearing on November 29, 2007, before the city files a Uniformed Land Use Review Procedure (ULURP), which would allow the use of eminent domain to condemn and steal away private property and sell it to a developer for a commercial and residential redevelopment project projected to cost upwards of $3 billion. This will be the City’s first Urban Renewal plan in close to 40 years.

    WPIRA has produced a compelling 15 minute videotape profiling the business/landowners whose livelihoods would be placed in serious jeopardy if eminent domain was to be instituted by the city. Moreover, it would have a major adverse impact on the employees who work at these corporations. WPIRA seeks to enter the video as testimony during the November 29th hearing.
