In Orange County, Calif., the city of Cypress invoked eminent domain against a church so that it could transfer the prime property to Costco. Although the plan failed, the city's reasoning was straightforward: Church members would have to lose their skin so the city would gain increased tax revenue from a big-box store. In Garden Grove, Calif., the city tried to force out an entire neighborhood of well-kept suburban homes - it was stopped after protests - to make way for a theme park. In Lakewood, Ohio, the city tried to use eminent domain to clear away a historic lakefront neighborhood so that it could build upscale condos.
