Excess Condemnation in Massachusetts
The story of excess condemnation in Massachusetts, as in most States, is a story of small accomplishment so far as the actual exercise of this power is concerned. In certain directions, however, Massachusetts has been a pioneer in formulating principles and establishing the right to use excess condemnation. The Massachusetts Remnant Act of 1904 was the first legislation passed by any State applying the principles of excess condemnation to the taking of remnants of lots of which only portions are actually required for purposes of street improvements.
