Damages Related to Improvements Made on Condemned Property Allowed.

In a condemnation case where a portion of a sand and gravel quarry was taken, the Second Department affirmed the lower court’s valuation of the condemned property.  The quarry owner argued that an income-based analysis, rather than a sales-comparison (land-value) approach, should be employed.  The Second Department determined that the income-based analysis (projected profits minus projected expenses) was not appropriate. The Second Department also affirmed the lower court’s determination that the quarry should be compensated for damages related to the improvements made on the condemned property, as opposed to damages related to the taking itself. Matter of Metropolitan Transportation Authority and Washed Aggregate Resources, Inc., 2011-03-14, Index No. 2674/98 Second Dept. 1-16-13
