Del. P.J.I. Civ. § 20.3
Date of Valuation
DATE OF VALUATION
In this case, the taking of the property by [condemning authority’s name]
occurred on [date]. So you must consider market value on that date rather than the
value at any time before or after that date. The just compensation to which the
[landowner’s name] is entitled is the fair market value of the property on [date], in
consideration of all the uses and purposes then available to the property or adaptable
to the property.
