Summary

A Baton Rouge church is locked in a legal battle over land seized for a road project, arguing the city’s $175,000 offer ignores the massive financial and operational damage caused. The church’s remaining property—now split in two—is valued at over $23 million, and they claim the road disrupted access, forced costly redesigns, and threatened to uproot their entire congregation. This case exposes how public infrastructure can ripple through communities, demanding deeper accountability beyond just land value.
