This session will attempt to identify the conflicts inherent in our federal system arising out of the inconsistent objectives between religious freedom and good land-use regulation. 3:45-5:00 p.m. Chicago: "Make Big Plans, Aim High in Hope" Columbus Hall K/L, East This presentation will analyze current planning proposals and historic preservation for one of the most exciting urban areas in the world. The AIA Guide to Chicago has described the city as a "Golden Funnel," initially for its merchants' ability to exploit the city's site as a link between agricultural products and their markets and, subsequently, for its role as a center for corporate headquarters, transportation, and the service economy. A large and important part of Chicago's success has been in its shaping-not only because of the structuring and restructuring of its street system in planning for future development but also because of its skyscrapers and its ability to preserve the city's heritage. This program will include leading lawyers and planners involved with the current efforts to develop and preserve. 7:00-9:00 p.m. ABA President's Reception Field Museum SUNDAY, August 5, 2001 8:00 a.m.-3:00 p.m. Section Office and Hospitality Erie, 3rd Floor 9:00-11:15 a.m. Council Meeting Grand Ballroom A/B, 2nd Floor 11:15-11:30 a.m. Section Election Grand Ballroom A/B, 2nd Floor 11:30 a.m.-2 p.m. Margaret Brent Awards Luncheon Hyatt Regency Hotel 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. Regulatory Takings After Palazzolo: The Supreme Court Speaks Co-sponsored with Real Property, Probate & Trust Law Section Westin River North Hotel, Grand Ballroom A This program will explore the ramifications of Palazzolo v. Rhode Island, in which the U.S. Supreme Court put in play some of the most fundamental questions in regulatory takings law. Issues that may arise include whether claims are categorically barred by regulations predating the owner's purchase, what is required to "ripen" a claim, and the relationship between market value and economically viable use in determining whether a regulation is a taking.
