What is the purpose of police powers regarding private property?

  1. To ensure all property is used for commercial purposes

  2. To regulate the use of private property for public welfare

  3. To confiscate private property without compensation

  4. To limit the sale of private property

The correct answer is: To regulate the use of private property for public welfare

Police powers are intended to protect the public's well-being and safety, including the use and regulation of private property. Option A is incorrect because police powers do not dictate how private property is used for commercial purposes. Option C is incorrect because police officers are not authorized to confiscate private property without providing compensation to the owner. Option D is also incorrect because police powers do not restrict the sale of private property.
