Road to the Future: Timeline: Planning in Oregon
A look at property in the state of Oregon: It is not just the dividing line between public and private land. However, the Fifth Amendment in the United States Constitution – “…nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation...” – seemingly would make it just that. Still, the state regulates private land, at times, as if it were its own. It is not that Oregon property rights are so unique to America, but rather it is the way the state interprets and enforces them that is.

Building the National Infrastructure Bank: Analysis: The Bank Not Built
Some $120 billion will be spent on infrastructure as a part of the $787 billion economic stimulus package passed by Congress. The establishment of a National Infrastructure Bank was not included in the final recovery plan. As a result, other than an overall stimulus in infrastructure spending by the federal government, the funding practices for public works projects – largely for highways and mass transit – remain the same. Still, it is not yet clear how a National Infrastructure Bank would function.
