Two property owners in Maplewood have won a pre-emptive strike against eminent domain after a state Superior Court judge removed their lots from the township's redevelopment plan.

Neither Carolyn Evans' office building that houses her account ing business nor Richard Rico's commercial space that includes a hair salon had been condemned. But both, located side by side on Springfield Avenue, were designated as properties in need of redevelopment.

The ones that have pull are exempt from the renovation. Ie tearing down and putting up a hotel or somesuch in their place.
