A)When the government decides to exercise its power of eminent domain,it will first offer to purchase the property for what it believes is the fair market value.If the owner does not want to sell or feels the price is too low,the government will initiate a condemnation proceeding and the court will determine whether the government has a legitimate public purpose for taking the property.If it does,the court will determine the fair market value of the property,which the government will then pay to the owner,and the property will be transferred to the government.
