SYNOPSIS: The City of Kent required Tiffany Family Trust Corporation to pay for a share of local improvements in the area. The Corporation claims that the amount it is being required to pay is a taking of private property for public use without just compensation and is also a violation of due process. Should the Corporation be able to assert these constitutional claims independently even though it failed to use the applicable statutory procedures to challenge the assessment amount?
