Looks good except Price of Repurchase. Surplus land should be returned to its rightful owners at no charge. The just compensation has served as rent for the public use, usually a very big discount if govt actually had paid rent. Let's call it even. If an old lady's house is flattened, becomes vacant space, then is declared surplus, the land should be returned at no charge with an apology.
