2001Sincerely, MARK PRYOR Attorney General MP:JD/cyh Enclosures 1 In Goss v. City of Little Rock, 151 F.3d 861 (8th Cir. 1998), the court affirmed the trial court's subsequent determination that the city's condition amounted to a taking. 2 Black's Law Dictionary (7 th ed. 1999) defines the term "dedication" in the alternative as "[t]he donation of land or creation of an easement for public use." 3 This pronouncement is dictum because the Court ruled that it need not even reach this issue given that appellant had failed to raise it below in the form of a challenge to a jury instruction.
