Property – regulatory takings

APPEAL from a judgment of the circuit court for St. Croix County: SCOTT R. NEEDHAM, Judge. Affirmed.

Joseph Murr, Michael Murr, Donna Murr and Peggy Heaver (collectively, the Murrs) appeal a judgment dismissing their regulatory takings claim upon motions
for summary judgment by the State of Wisconsin and St. Croix County. We agree with the circuit court that the challenged regulatory action, an ordinance
that effectively merged the Murrs’ two adjacent, riparian lots for sale or development purposes, did not deprive the Murrs of all or substantially all
practical use of their property. Accordingly, we affirm.
