Description
Defendants appeal as of right from an opinion and order awarding defendants attorney fees and costs in this condemnation proceeding. We affirm. Plaintiff initiated a condemnation action to acquire property owned by defendants for the purpose of the relocation of US-27 in Clinton County. Plaintiff made an initial good-faith offer of $1,625,655 pursuant to § 5 of the Uniform Condemnation Procedures Act (UCPA), MCL 213.55; MSA 8.265(5), and paid this amount to defendants. Defendants contested the adequacy of plaintiff's offer, arguing that the property was worth approximately $9 million. Plaintiff then reappraised the property and reduced its offer to $1,071,000. The case proceeded to trial, and a jury returned a verdict awarding just compensation to defendants in the amount of $2,593,931. With interest, the judgment resulted in an award of $2,724,615.
