The Court instructs you to assess the total amount of just compensation due the Defendants in this cause as a result of the Plaintiff's appropriation of their real estate interests for the improvement of U.S. Route 41 in Gibson County, Indiana. 2. The effective date of your assessment is February 20, 1998. 3. The measure of damages is the difference between the "fair market value" of the Defendant's real estate before the appropriation and the "fair market value" of the residue of the Defendant's real estate remaining after the appropriation. 4. The fact that the Plaintiff has the right to appropriate the Defendant's real estate for its road improvement project shall not affect your assessment of the Defendant's total just compensation. 5. In the course of assessing the Defendants' total just compensation in this cause, you shall consider: (a) the "fair market value" of the land taken by the Plaintiff; (b) the "fair market value" of all improvements to the land taken by the Plaintiff; (c) the damages, if any, to the residue of the Defendant's real estate caused by the Plaintiff's appropriation. (d) other damages, if any, that will result from the construction of the Plaintiff's proposed road improvements. (e) the benefits, if any, to the residue of the Defendant's real estate resulting from the Plaintiff's appropriation or the construction of the Plaintiff's proposed road improvements. . � � 6. The Defendants' total just compensation in this cause shall not be less than the sum of the "fair market value" of the land and the improvements taken by the Plaintiff. The benefits, if any, to the residue of the DefendanYs real estate must be offset against damages, 5c and 5d, not real estate values, 5a and 5b. 7. The term "fair market value" means the price the real estate would bring after fair and reasonable negotiations between a seller willing, but not compelled to sell and a buyer willing and able, but not compelled to buy. 8. The term "benefits" means any increase in the value of the residue of the Defendants' real estate that will naturally and proximately result from the Plaintiff's appropriation or the construction of the road improvements it has proposed. 9. In the course of determining "fair market value", you may consider the highest and best use for the DefendanYs real estaYe. The present use of the Defendant's real estate is not the only criterion by which value may be measured. 10. A loss of access is compensable, if there is no other reasonable access to the residue of the Defendant's real estate. The term "reasonable access" means any access which permits the highest and best use of the Defendant's real estate. 1 1. You are the sole judges of the "fair market value" of the Defendant's land and the improvements thereto, andyouu may use any accepted method for determining such value. Likewise, you are the sole judges of the benefits and damages, if any, sustained by the Defendants and caused by the Plaintiff, and you may use any accepted method to determine such benefits or damages. 12. You may examine the Plaintiff's plats, blueprints, drawings and _ plans for road improvement Project USR 41126)RR, if this will aid you in assessing the total amount of just compensation due the Defendants in this cause. 13. You may examine the Defendants' books and records that pertain to the subject property, if this will aid you in assessing the total amount of just compensation due the Defendants in this cause. � � 14. The "Report of Appraisers" form, which the Court has provided for your use, must be exe uted and filed with the Clerk of the Court on or before the SC( day of i o �iL�_ , 1998. C� .
