Doesn't it depend on how big the yard is and how much money? Happened to my granddad many years ago with his front yard! Brought the land, built his home for 600 (told you it was awhile ago). The council wanted 5 yards, offered 200, still left him with 30 yards before his front door.
In Norway its not so easy to say no if it is a road planed, people are loosing their childhood homes for the building of a new highway.. They pay for the land what they THINK its worth..
The trustee claims they DON'T want to force this homeowner to sell, but the homeowner has already made things quite clear, so WHY IS THE TOWNSHIP STILL TRYING TO ACQUIRE THE PROPERTY AT ALL? They seem to be telling two different stories!
Not even close. The Interstate system destroyed lots of people. It was particularly bad because where most roads follow property lines / section lines, the Interstate meandered cross-country all over the place, cutting properties in two. Whole farms were destroyed when one portion was cut off and might have required a 10 mile route to access, assuming it didn't become landlocked. Then the government gave a lowball value on just the specific area of the roadway.
The only people who can stick it to the county is the railroad. The county is only allowed a certain amount of crossings. They must ask permission from the railroad to cross their tracks.

@@srpacific then they should trim the shrubbery around the corner to give those driving a larger field of veiw... seems easier then building a whole nother road.
Of course he goes further up to see if there’s traffic, I would be incredibly concerned if you or anyone else didn’t. You cannot see anything beyond that shrubbery.
This Guy: "So you want to buy my 1,000,000$ Ferrari? State: "No need for the whole car, we offer 1,900$ for the motor and the wheels, you can keep the rest!!!!"
Eh to call a decent corner of his property the engine is a bit of a false equivalency. That’s like the house. Which makes property taxes so expensive. You don’t need insurance just to own wheels of a car. It’s more like 30 bucks for a Ferrari’s front left wheel. Still endangering both scenarios. I knew someone who had not one but two cars drive through their house walls because of how close it was to the road.
Not the same but it kinda reminds me of a dash cam video I saw where a guy got a ticket for basically doing what this guy did. Difference was in that video he had proof he stopped at the line for 9 seconds before he pulled up, cop said he's not supposed to stop at the sign, he's supposed to stop just before the intersection. Then what's the point of the stop sign? Move it up if that's where they're supposed to stop.
@Andrey Angere is that the law? I know plenty of intersections where you don't have to stop, like two spots have stop signs but the other two don't. I could even see if there was something blocking it, but if there's nothing blocking your view and you stopped at the stop sign, and you can clearly see there's no other vehicles why would you have to stop where there is no stop sign? It's possible that's a local law. I know an area near where I live and a guy I work with got a ticket for turning right at a stop light and not stopping. Thing is he had a green light. It's a law in that city that you treat it as a stop sign if you're turning right even if you have the green light. I haven't seen that anywhere else. Yes if you have a red light since cross traffic would have the green but if you have the green then the only reason you should check is if someone runs a red light or someone coming from the other direction is turning left. Both would also affect if you just went straight through the green light but you don't have to stop at a green light for that, just turning right. And again if you had to stop at both the sign and intersection why not move it up closer to the intersection so you don't have to stop multiple times at the same intersection. He waited 9 seconds so I think he was waiting for traffic then went when it was clear. And since the cop let him go, and didn't mention he has to stop twice, I'm guessing the cop knew he was wrong.
@Andrey Angere huh, not a thing here in Baltimore, I wonder where it’s normal/exacted to stop twice? I do it when the stop sign is clear but the intersection is blocked from my view from a bush/tree/dumbass, but it’s not required by law.
Let the man have his property he's basically saying fuck off "we don't want to force him" as she continues to bombard the guy even tho he's made it clear its most likely not happening
What’s stupid is the woman said “The story is we are trying to take his land. If we can’t purchase the land from you, that’s fine.” Then why make a whole news segment of it? Lol
U know what's weird, president jackson was like this with the native Americans. Either he will buy the land from them or kick them out by force. The kick option was what he mostly went with cuz he hated them for a reason but when the government bought the land, it was because of Congress hearing out natives that try to defend their land.
My family went through something similar a couple years ago; we live next to a school, and the town declared it needed an expansion. They wanted to access part of the woodland in our backyard, and when they originally approached my father, they expected him to give up the land for absolutely free. Like excuse me, no?? Why would he do that?? So he demanded the town pay him in full for the property value or come up with a new expansion plan that didn’t involve our land. The town already planned out this expansion and had no plan B, so they were eventually forced to agree with the easement. It’s absolutely ridiculous how towns try to take advantage of taxpayers like this. This man is doing the right thing, he deserves to be paid in full for the property. Good for him for calling out the bs!

This has nothing to do with the government taking land. They made an offer. He declined. Why not just move on rather than bitching about it. Why is this even on the news?
First off, $1,900 is insulting. Secondly, this would not only leave him out the money that the land they want is worth but then the value of his home will plummet. Thirdly, we just saw on camera that someone failed to stop at the sign. The problem isn't the road, it's your local law enforcement not sitting there handing out tickets until people learn to drive. I would recommend abandoning the project as it is. Replace the stop signs with signs that have flashing red lights and add a small speed bump. A place in my town was like this, a wall that keeps the him next to the road from washing away blocks your view to the right and trees block the view from the left. There is a speed bump so small that you done even really feel it but you do notice it and the sign has flashing lights. If you cross the straightaway without stopping then you should have your license taken away. I've nearly been in an accident at this spot when someone ran the sign but since they added a handful of asphalt and two blinking lights I don't see anyone fail to stop now. $1,900 just to buy this man's property would cover the cost to do the same at every stop sign in their town I'd imagine. That doesn't even touch how much it'll cost to dig up the bought property and the existing roads and lay entirely new road down. What a waste of tax payer money. They could MAKE money by adding a bump and lights and have officers ticket violators. This town needs new officials.

@Bork Arf most taxes are ridiculous. like i understand we need to tax, but it is getting out of hand. like did you know that if you buy a used item on ebay, you have to pay sales tax even though that used item most likely had a sales tax already paid on it when it was new, just like cars. every time a car is sold there is a sales tax(depending on state) even if the car has been sold like 5 times, now that sales tax has been paid 5 times.
Land bound taxes do not make any sense when there are income taxes. Property taxes were among the first types of taxes since ancient times because it was the easiest way to determine someone's income because most people were agricultural workers. This model became obsolete when the economy diversified and there are now multiple ways to make money without directly owning land. I feel like it's just a useful legacy of the past for the government.

i don't think anyone was shaming or ridiculing him, the county obviously did a study of the intersection and the area ("the blueprints are already done"), the taxpayers give the county a limited budget to work with, all they had for that was $1900, they made an offer, he said no to the offer, and the lady with the county is saying they're not going to emininent domain him probably because that intersection isn't really that critical and they probably lack the funds to legally pursue it. sounds like a routine municipal government interaction with a land owner located near multiple rights-of-way in a low income rural ohio county that's probably not even incorporated

On the off chance this isn’t fake, sue. Eminent domain requires due compensation to be judged by a qualified third party. Not only do they have to compensate you, they have to compensate you FAIRLY. If they just offer you a deal they could give you $5 if you agree, but eminent domain is a whole different ball game. You have a fantastic lawsuit on your hands if you actually take it.

Yes but they need to straighten the road so they can take the other property's front yards by widening it latter. It's how they get rid of old housing, build a new "needed" road or something then build new $200k houses and/ or apartments on it.
I went through the same thing years ago with my last home. They wanted to widen a two lane road to four and that meant taking 20' across the front of my property. I told them up front that I didn't want to sell, that the land was worth more to me than almost any amount of money. Of course at that point they threatened me that they would take the land and give me nothing. Is this really america. I went to all the meeting where they explained how if people living along the road would donate the land they could take a tax deduction on their income tax. Oh sure that going to be a good return. I argued with them that they didn't have enough money to buy the land and build the road. Which they didn't because no one donated the land except for a couple of developers who wanted the road widened. I expect there was campaign funds donated for the county commissioner for widening the road. At any rate I eventually gave up and at that point decided to make them pay as much as possible. They ended up paying me almost what I had paid for the entire half acre my home sat on but I ended up with my homes bedrooms being thirty feet from a four lane road. Best to move which I did eventually. I personally think the state or county should have to pay three times the going price for every foot of property taken.
I agree. Any eminent domain b.s. situation should force the county/city to pay 3 - 4 times the property value either before or after the development whichever us greater.
@tyvek05 Please explain how I'm in the wrong when the entire widening was a political stunt to benefit developers in the area while making my home basically uninhabitable. Along another road the garage that worked on my cars had to close because they took his entire parking area and offered him way below what the land was worth. You're confusing me wanting a fair price for my land with me saying(which I didn't) that the govt. had no right to take my land. Perhaps some reading classes will help you.

I just checked... The road has been built through his property recently, so they either negotiated a better deal with him, or maybe the house got new homeowners so the city just negotiated with the new homeowners... but either way, they should do a follow up story for us.
their not going to follow up on the story because this story was an attack on the homeowner. they was paid to make a story to show that the homeowner is selfish.
It’s sad, someone found the report. Same owner. Agreed for less. They must of threaten him with something else. Or gave him some other incentive. I can’t imagine what would make me do it for less, unless they were threatening with a worse deal than even just for less. Idk if they could threaten with taxes or with getting the courts involved which he couldn’t afford. Not sure.
Eminent domain is a legal action where your "fair market value" is determined in court and you are issued a check along with an eviction order. Government always makes an offer to be a "willing seller" before pursuing legal action because it's cheaper that way. I highly doubt they are going to abandon plans because one person is not a willing seller.
@@EightiesTV Yeah but the township has to purchase the whole property, not just that tiny chunk of half his yard. And the township trustees have openly stated that they’re abandoning plans for the project because it’s too small and unnecessary to use eminent domain, and it’s not worth it for them to purchase his property for such a small expansion that doesn’t provide enough public benefit to use eminent domain... maybe if his city doubles in size in like 15 yrs they can use eminent domain. None of those trustees gain anything monetarily by him losing that 20ft if yard so idk why everyone thinks this is some Big Government ploy to steal this mans valuable 20 ft. It’s a tiny little state township that has a 4 way with a high percentage of accidents and we’re all pretending it’s wrong for them to make offers

The guy went bankrupt because his daughter needed a kidney transplant, and asked the city for the $1,900 but the city made new blueprints for a nearby shopping mall so they were no longer interested in his property because of a new road design. Then the Chinese made him an offer on the property to turn it into a Starbucks, but it wasn't enough to cover the cost of the kidney, so the Chinese struck a deal with the man to give one of their kidneys and in return the man would become a product of the Chinese government. He now serves as a foreign diplomat in China and was assigned a new wife to make him more convincing as an ambassador for America. They are 6 months pregnant and expecting a boy. His daughters surgery went well and once she recovered she promised to payback the Chinese government in hopes that one day they will allow her father to return home.

Someone's math is bad to equate $1,900 the value of that land lol. I think they forgot a extra two zeroes.
Not even close. The Interstate system destroyed lots of people. It was particularly bad because where most roads follow property lines / section lines, the Interstate meandered cross-country all over the place, cutting properties in two. Whole farms were destroyed when one portion was cut off and might have required a 10 mile route to access, assuming it didn't become landlocked. Then the government gave a lowball value on just the specific area of the roadway.

0:44 guy doesn’t even stop all the way
Not the same but it kinda reminds me of a dash cam video I saw where a guy got a ticket for basically doing what this guy did. Difference was in that video he had proof he stopped at the line for 9 seconds before he pulled up, cop said he's not supposed to stop at the sign, he's supposed to stop just before the intersection. Then what's the point of the stop sign? Move it up if that's where they're supposed to stop.
@@tonyblake7569 that sounds like such a scam
@Andrey Angere is that the law? I know plenty of intersections where you don't have to stop, like two spots have stop signs but the other two don't. I could even see if there was something blocking it, but if there's nothing blocking your view and you stopped at the stop sign, and you can clearly see there's no other vehicles why would you have to stop where there is no stop sign? It's possible that's a local law. I know an area near where I live and a guy I work with got a ticket for turning right at a stop light and not stopping. Thing is he had a green light. It's a law in that city that you treat it as a stop sign if you're turning right even if you have the green light. I haven't seen that anywhere else. Yes if you have a red light since cross traffic would have the green but if you have the green then the only reason you should check is if someone runs a red light or someone coming from the other direction is turning left. Both would also affect if you just went straight through the green light but you don't have to stop at a green light for that, just turning right. And again if you had to stop at both the sign and intersection why not move it up closer to the intersection so you don't have to stop multiple times at the same intersection. He waited 9 seconds so I think he was waiting for traffic then went when it was clear. And since the cop let him go, and didn't mention he has to stop twice, I'm guessing the cop knew he was wrong.
That's the first thing I noticed 🛑
@Andrey Angere huh, not a thing here in Baltimore, I wonder where it’s normal/exacted to stop twice? I do it when the stop sign is clear but the intersection is blocked from my view from a bush/tree/dumbass, but it’s not required by law.

Why not just pay him smh
My family went through something similar a couple years ago; we live next to a school, and the town declared it needed an expansion. They wanted to access part of the woodland in our backyard, and when they originally approached my father, they expected him to give up the land for absolutely free. Like excuse me, no?? Why would he do that??
So he demanded the town pay him in full for the property value or come up with a new expansion plan that didn’t involve our land. The town already planned out this expansion and had no plan B, so they were eventually forced to agree with the easement. It’s absolutely ridiculous how towns try to take advantage of taxpayers like this. This man is doing the right thing, he deserves to be paid in full for the property.

Mitchell Maytorena Are you going to reply to EVERYONE with that?
First off, $1,900 is insulting.
Secondly, this would not only leave him out the money that the land they want is worth but then the value of his home will plummet.
Thirdly, we just saw on camera that someone failed to stop at the sign. The problem isn't the road, it's your local law enforcement not sitting there handing out tickets until people learn to drive.
I would recommend abandoning the project as it is. Replace the stop signs with signs that have flashing red lights and add a small speed bump. A place in my town was like this, a wall that keeps the him next to the road from washing away blocks your view to the right and trees block the view from the left. There is a speed bump so small that you done even really feel it but you do notice it and the sign has flashing lights. If you cross the straightaway without stopping then you should have your license taken away. I've nearly been in an accident at this spot when someone ran the sign but since they added a handful of asphalt and two blinking lights I don't see anyone fail to stop now.
$1,900 just to buy this man's property would cover the cost to do the same at every stop sign in their town I'd imagine. That doesn't even touch how much it'll cost to dig up the bought property and the existing roads and lay entirely new road down. What a waste of tax payer money. They could MAKE money by adding a bump and lights and have officers ticket violators. This town needs new officials.

I went through the same thing years ago with my last home. They wanted to widen a two lane road to four and that meant taking 20' across the front of my property. I told them up front that I didn't want to sell, that the land was worth more to me than almost any amount of money. Of course at that point they threatened me that they would take the land and give me nothing. Is this really america. I went to all the meeting where they explained how if people living along the road would donate the land they could take a tax deduction on their income tax. Oh sure that going to be a good return. I argued with them that they didn't have enough money to buy the land and build the road. Which they didn't because no one donated the land except for a couple of developers who wanted the road widened. I expect there was campaign funds donated for the county commissioner for widening the road. At any rate I eventually gave up and at that point decided to make them pay as much as possible. They ended up paying me almost what I had paid for the entire half acre my home sat on but I ended up with my homes bedrooms being thirty feet from a four lane road. Best to move which I did eventually. I personally think the state or county should have to pay three times the going price for every foot of property taken.
I agree. Any eminent domain b.s. situation should force the county/city to pay 3 - 4 times the property value either before or after the development whichever us greater.
@tyvek05 Please explain how I'm in the wrong when the entire widening was a political stunt to benefit developers in the area while making my home basically uninhabitable.

Eminent domain is a legal action where your "fair market value" is determined in court and you are issued a check along with an eviction order.

And the township trustees have openly stated that they’re abandoning plans for the project because it’s too small and unnecessary to use eminent domain, and it’s not worth it for them to purchase his property for such a small expansion that doesn’t provide enough public benefit to use eminent domain... maybe if his city doubles in size in like 15 yrs they can use eminent domain. None of those trustees gain anything monetarily by him losing that 20ft if yard so idk why everyone thinks this is some Big Government ploy to steal this mans valuable 20 ft. It’s a tiny little state township that has a 4 way with a high percentage of accidents and we’re all pretending it’s wrong for them to make offers
@@littlebubbleguy ... I hear you. Big or Small, no government has ever promised to do one thing and then proceeded to do the complete opposite. LOL.
@@christophermurphy7113 that’s true though and I’m not saying that eminent domain hasn’t been inappropriately used in the past or that it couldn’t be.
My favorite part was when the kid
in the back took a picture of the interview and then just chucked the phone on the ground.
Damn right. I agree with this guy 100%.
Good for him!!
1900 dollars? Why don’t you just give him an Apple PC stand
Notice how after they said they don’t want to force him away they bring up imminent domain
Did you watch a different video or are you stupid? They said it had nothing to do with that. They crazy guy bitching about an offer, made it up. Watch it again cause you aren't getting it.
Mitchell Maytorena lmao you should calm your tits, Tarzan
She was the one who brought it up, the guy never said a word about it, that was a thinly veiled threat.
@@mitchellmaytorena1137 Are you naive? The guy never said it.
@@mitchellmaytorena1137 you are weird
When you put the amount of space in acres then obviously it’s going to sound small, but like he said, it’s taking a huge chunk out of it. Even then, nobody wants a road running through their backyard, like wtf?
1:33 Wtf did I just witness, did y’all see the kid just take a picture and discard the phone on the floor 🤣😭☠️
1:35 this kid just throwing a iPhone X to the ground
Am on his side
Yeah well, for 1900$ he can buy 2.
1:53 Why does that "that's fine" sounds like "we will just take it by force instead"? 😂
This should’ve happened in 2020, it’d add to more of the things that make absolutely no sense
It has already been completed. The road was done
Thongs change scent from one end to the other. Knowledge is power. God bless
“Ah yes. Today. Today is the day I bust out my Fat Albert shirt”
Lol lil man at 1:34 just dropped mommy or daddy’s thousand dollar device
@@Muzaffar127 i know it wont break but im just saying who lets their kid have that
The same one you're using to type this with right now ;)
“Give you whatever’s in my pocket so I can dig a trench through your yard”lol
Christ .. that crew cab OBS was beautiful ..
Yes it was
Ya ya cool and all but can we talk about how this dude is rocking a Fat Albert T Shirt?
It’s been about a year, what happened?
Nothing, looked on google maps, but not sure if it’s a new enough picture
They killed him, his family, and the dog, then built a mini mall over his demolished house.
they made his sign of 0$ and need to but it back later
▂▃Zaggnut▃▂ sounds right
The guy went bankrupt because his daughter needed a kidney transplant, and asked the city for the $1,900 but the city made new blueprints for a nearby shopping mall so they were no longer interested in his property because of a new road design. Then the Chinese made him an offer on the property to turn it into a Starbucks, but it wasn't enough to cover the cost of the kidney, so the Chinese struck a deal with the man to give one of their kidneys and in return the man would become a product of the Chinese government. He now serves as a foreign diplomat in China and was assigned a new wife to make him more convincing as an ambassador for America. They are 6 months pregnant and expecting a boy. His daughters surgery went well and once she recovered she promised to payback the Chinese government in hopes that one day they will allow her father to return home. She is currently employed as a barista at the Starbucks that used to be her father's home.
I love how they cut out right before she says (at least I think so) "we will use force".
Google Satellite shows that the work has been completed.
Why would someone want a road going through their yard
Why am I watching this. I don’t even live in the same country
"They're not trying to force him."
Except they can, and knowing them they'll just take it cus they can.
They asked if they could build a rode on this land. He said no. They canceled the plans. Why it’s even in the news is crazy to me it was pretty cut and dry
@@ninja1inblack105 They didn't cancel the plans, and the road has been built. It was newsworthy because they were strongarming him into selling his property for $1,900, when the road would make his land worthless as it cuts it in half.
@@LouisAndPillz How do you figure his land was "cut in half"? Take a look at google earth, they cut across the corner of the lot to align the roads maybe 50 feet into the property if you assume the lots are fully owned by the landowner and the city didn't already own like 5-10 feet of the lot from the road. They basically cut the corner of the lot, far from devaluing the property to "worthless".
I think the answer here is simply to make Pendergast a multi-millionaire. He deserves it. A true American hero.
Cant blame him. All or none.
His property, his choice. Simple.
Ever heard of expropriation of property ?
@@vacciniumaugustifolium1420 if he owns it, he gives them the choice to make, either all or none.
1:35 that kid in the background just letting his phone fall on the ground
Doesn't suprise me honestly. That grass ain't gonna hurt it in the slightest. Even the most fragile of phones can survive that drop test. I do it all the time when at the lake and I need to jump into the water for something.
he is completely in the right
