Are they at least buying it from you at a fair value?

KingDave

No "Fair Value" in this case. Was priceless- Like trying to put a value on kids

Nothing like having someone buy something you didn't want to sell

Point is, it's really nothing like Bundy.

JamesDean

It's worse than the Bundy case, I'm a law-abiding citizen.

They should have relocation to offer you where they give you equal land elsewher

Mister P

They are trying to be very accommodative to the landowners who are losing

Land in Bejamin/Genola is not a fair swap. Those towns are holes.

I don't have much relocation experience, but if they are taking your land

Mister P

4/16/14 6:39pm

Exactly!! Forgot to mention that the new diverted river and tributary streams

MightyFreakingCougar

That doesn't seem right.

Seems like a colossal waste of time and effort

I can't wait for that day. Seriously. If they can do it, it will be amazing.
