Sounds somewhat similar to what a town in Connecticut is doing in the Kelo case which the Supreme Court will affirm in a decision to be handed down in June.

While I disagree strongly with the use of ED to seize property at least in the Conn case they purport to hand it over to the private sector for what they claim is a productive use of the property they seize, unlike here where the State will engage in 'Agricultural projects' AKA Collectivization.
