Synopsis

The Florida Department of Transportation appealed a summary judgment in an inverse condemnation case, challenging the trial court's finding that the mere inclusion of property within a reservation map constituted a per se taking. The First District Court of Appeal reversed, adopting a narrower interpretation of takings law that requires traditional takings analysis on a parcel-by-parcel basis even when land-use regulations are deemed invalid.


Holding

The court held that mere inclusion of property within a reservation map does not constitute a per se taking. A traditional takings analysis must be applied to each affected parcel, and the invalidity of a land-use regulation as an unconstitutional exercise of police power does not necessarily mean a taking of the regulated property has occurred.


Headnotes

[1] A regulatory enactment declared unconstitutional as an invalid exercise of police power does not necessarily mean a 'taking' of the regulated property has occurred.

[2] A traditional takings analysis must still be applied to each affected parcel when a regulatory enactment is challenged as an unconstitutional taking.

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

We grant the Department of Transportation’s Motion for Rehearing, withdraw our previous opinion, and substitute the following opinion therefor. This case originated below as an inverse condemnation proceeding and involves the issue of whether the mere inclusion of appellees’ property within the boundaries of the map of reservation filed by the Department of Transportation pursuant to subsection 337.241(1), Florida Statutes (1987), amounted to a per se taking under the supreme court’s decision in Joint Ventures, Inc. v. Department of Transportation, 563 So. 2d 622 (Fla.1990).

The trial court granted a partial final summary judgment on that basis in favor of appellees, expressly relying on the Fifth District’s interpretation of Joint Ventures as set forth in Orlando/Orange County Expressway Authority v. W & F Agrigrowth-Fernfield, Ltd., 582 So. 2d 790 (Fla. 5th DCA 1991).

However, very recently, the Fifth District reconsidered Agrigrowth, and in an en banc opinion, expressly receded from its decision therein. See Department of Transportation v. Weisenfeld, 617 So. 2d 1071 (Fla. 5th DCA 1993).

Upon careful review of that court’s majority and concurring opinions in Weisenfeld, we adopt the view taken by Judge Griffin in her specially concurring opinion. Judge Griffin’s exposition carefully defined “[t]he relationship between the invalidity of land-use regulation that interferes with property rights in violation of due process and land use regulation that effects a 'taking’ ...” Id. at 1080. “[A] regulatory enactment declared unconstitutional as an invalid exercise of police power does not necessarily mean a ‘taking’ of the regulated property has occurred.” Id.

Accordingly, “[a] traditional ‘takings’ analysis must still be applied to each affected parcel.” Id.

Because the trial court granted appellees’ motion based on an erroneous interpretation of the law, and because we discern a genuine issue of material fact on the question of whether a taking of appel-lees’ property occurred, the partial final summary judgment entered in favor of appellees is hereby REVERSED, and the cause is REMANDED for further proceedings.

JOANOS, KAHN and MICKLE, JJ., concur. . In adopting such an approach, we recognize that our opinion herein expressly conflicts with the opinion of the Second District in Tampa-Hillsborough County Expressway Authority v. A.G.W.S. Corp., 608 So. 2d 52 (Fla. 2d DCA 1992), review granted, 621 So. 2d 433 (Fla.1993).
