KPRC-2 notes that Metro will meet with the Richmond Avenue Coalition — a group of residents and business owners — to discuss Metro’s light rail expansion plans and whether or not Metro will be using eminent domain:

People living along the proposed Richmond Avenue light-rail line are afraid they will lose their land, but hope officials will give them some answers Thursday.

The Richmond Avenue Coalition, which is made up of hundreds of business and home owners, will meet with a METRO vice president to find out if the government will have the right to purchase property without the owner’s consent.

The meeting will be held at St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church on West Alabama Street from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. The meeting is open to the public.
