Exactions Flashcards
Exaction
conditions by cities by which prop owners must agree to get permit to build/develop own land
Exaction 2-prong test:
1) essential nexus
2) degree of connection
Nollan:
condition valid only if essential nexus between condition and reason for the limitation
i) F: beachfront prop owners wanted permit to tear down bungalow to build bigger house; condition: public easement for access to public beach–>comp required (taking); lack of connection between visibility/ access
Dolan:
exaction must be related in nature and extent to the impact of the proposed develop if there is an essential nexus, the degree of connection must be roughly proportional to impact of owner’s proposed develop
i) F: applied for permit to redevelop; condition: 1 )dedicate portion for storm drainage, 2) dedicate strip for bike/ped path–>passes Nolan test, but not ‘degree of connection’ test (bike path may have essential nexus to lowering traffic, but in reality, it wouldn’t be that much)
