JLCNY Fact Sheet on “Takings” Lawsuit – We Need More $$

| | | | |
The Joint Landowners Coalition of New York (JLCNY) is ready to sue New York State on behalf of landowners for "takings"--the concept that the state has illegally stopped property owners from using their land and therefore must compensate them for it.
