Q. Eminent domain - is that through a vote of the Metro District board or will it need a majority of home/property owners?
A. When a revenue generating, positive cashflow, profit making, community enhancing entity is under consideration for purchase, no vote of the home/property is required. The entity has to be forensically accounted, engineered studied and feasibility assessed by the Metro BOD. This would be a Revenue Bond.

Contrarily, when a project like road construction or recreation amenities is considered, a Debt bond needs to be issued. Anytime the District takes on debt it is mandatory to have a Homeowner/Property owner vote whether to approve the project and debt bond.
