35 What is Just Compensation? Measured by the fair market value of the property taken FMV: the amount a purchaser who is willing to buy the property would pay to an owner who is willing to sell it, taking into consideration the highest and best use of the property
36 What is Just Compensation? Determining just compensation--three valuation methods Market approach: compare to similar properties and adjust for differences Income approach: value of an income-producing property by converting cash flows and reversions into property value (capitalization of income) Cost approach: cost to construct less depreciation
37 Evidence of Market Value The Project Rule: enhancement or diminution in value caused by the governmental improvement not admissible State v. Anderson, 197 N.W.2d 237 (Minn. 1972) (enhancements) Regents v. Hibbing, 225 N.W.2d 810 (1975)
38 Evidence of Market Value Highest and Best Use: law requires that property be valued at its highest and best use. Four criteria are: legally permissible, physically possible, financially feasible and maximally productive Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, 3rd ed. (Appraisal Institute) at 171.
39 Evidence of Market Value Principles applied by Minnesota courts in determining highest and best use: Assemblage: if H&BU achieved through assembling parcel with others, evidence of likelihood of assembly will be heard. Regents. Zoning Change: if H&BU achieved through zoning change, probability of such change will be heard. State v. Briggs, 488 N.W.2d 811 (Minn. App. 1992).
40 Evidence of Market Value--Partial Takings Severance Damages. Where the entire parcel is not taken, the owner is entitled to compensation for the diminution in value of the remainder of the property after the taking, i.e., severance damages, a form of consequential damages. City of Minneapolis v. Yale, 268 N.W.2d 170 (Minn. 1971).
41 Evidence of Market Value--Partial Takings, Severance Principles Larger parcel rule: parcels of land may be considered together for purposes of measuring damages to remaining property after taking if the parcels are sufficiently connected. Yale. Mitigation/cost to cure: Owner has duty to mitigate damages. State v. Pahl, 95 N.W.2d 85 (Minn. 1959). Severance damages may, as a result, be limited to owner s cost to cure rather than diminution in value.
42 Evidence of Market Value--Partial Takings, Severance Principles Loss of access: Arises to level of a taking only when owner is left without reasonably convenient and suitable access in at least one direction. Hendrickson v. State, 127 N.W.2d 165 (Minn. 1964). New driveway access rule: 2006 amendments added provision allowing business owner compensation if loss of 51% or greater of driveway access and 51% decrease in revenue. Minn. Stat , subd. 4.
43 Evidence of Market Value--Partial Takings, Severance Principles Loss of visibility/construction interference: Both are factors in measuring diminution in value of remainder after taking. Going concern damages. See 2006 amendments, Minn. Stat and
