“All Chad Tausch wanted to do was add a few rooms to his Miami home. In many cities, homeowners need a permit to make such additions. But although the city had no problem with his proposed construction, it required something more than a permit fee: half of Tausch’s front yard — without even offering to pay for it. No land surrender, no permit. The city has been making the same demand of other homeowners who need alteration permits. The city has a plan, a goal: Pile up land that the city might one day use to widen roads.” (12/15/25)
