- a.Eminent domain
- b.Police power✓
- c.Escheat
- d.Deed restriction
Zoning is an exercise of police power, the government's authority to regulate private activity to protect public health, safety, morals, and welfare. Eminent domain is the taking of property with compensation; escheat is reversion to the state; deed restrictions are private, not governmental.
