[QUOTE="Sanford, post: 2214432, member: 27733"] Get a current appraisal and an estimated appraisal of what your property will be worth after the change. If it's less, they owe you the "fair market value" difference, and are also responsible to restore the condition of any of your remaining property damaged in the process - i.e., if there's a fence on that side now, there should be a fence on that side when they're done. You should also get an agreement from the commissioner / appraiser for a permanent reduction of the assessed value for your county ad valorem taxes. In other words, they can take your property but they're responsible for making you whole to the extent possible. As a last resort if you don't think you're getting anywhere with them you can mention you're considering asking for a temporary injunction based on the short notice you were given so that you have have time to have your property appraised, photos made, legal descriptions checked, survey corners marked, etc. - anything you think you might justifiably need to have done that will slow their process down - but again, last resort only, and works best if you already have a lawyer on speed dial.
