Atlantic County Assignment Judge Julio Mendez dismissed the condemnation complaint as a manifest abuse of power because the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority (CRDA) did not provide reasonable assurances that the proposed redevelopment would come to fruition in the foreseeable future. The CRDA sought to condemn the property in furtherance of its mandate to promote tourism in Atlantic City. At the time of the decision under review, the CRDA had no specific redevelopment plans under consideration for the Project; it had not issued a request for proposals (RFP) to prospective developers, and no developer had committed to redeveloping within the South Inlet Mixed Use Development Project area. Nevertheless, the CRDA maintained it had a right to "bank" the property for redevelopment at some unspecified time in the future. Agreeing with Judge Mendez, the court affirms.
