From The New London Day (requires registration; goes to paid archive in 7 days):
“There’s a budget here,†Joplin said of the money the NLDC can spend on property acquisition. “And I tell you what, it may be first come, first serve.â€
– New London Development Corporation
President Michael Joplin, after NLDC

in essence (and probably illegally)
warning other Kelo holdouts that
they might not get any money.
