it is not just how much land, but how little can be paid for such land by the developers who buy up farm land not currently zoned for commercial use but who have "friends" in government who would gladly rezone such land after these developers complete their respective purchases at "rural" rates.
None of these are even close to the 2000 acres DCEDI (Jim West) wants!!
Somebody must really want to get rich.
Just because the list is for individual lots doesn't mean that we should not try to combine the idustrial uses into a Industrial Park or Commercial/Industrial subdivision. This would be better planning for the community. This is why there should be a search for a larger tract of land.
I think the county is just looking for a tax base.
"This is why there should be a search for a larger tract of land."
Just make sure all the planning for these larger tracts of land are kept secret and behind closed doors...
This way, the likes of Fehrman and Red Apple can make their offers for such land to unsuspecting land owners who are not privy to the same inside knowledge...
We would not want someone other than the chosen few to prosper in this County. A County run by the few, to prosper only the few!!!
"Just make sure all the planning for these larger tracts of land are kept secret and behind closed doors..."
The "Pro-Development" folks certainly get real quiet when aspects of their "back-office, closed-door" ways of doing business are brought up.
I wonder why that is?
Do you feel left out if you talk to them maybe you can be a part of something.
Just anything to be heard and noticed.
"Do you feel left out if you talk to them maybe you can be a part of something."
One must pay the requisite $5000.00 entry fee, learn the secret hand-shake and promise to be for any and all unrestrained development...at the taxpayers' expense of course...to be, as you define it: "Part of something."
Thanks but no thanks!
I actually have a job that exists separate from needing political cronies to subsidize my employment with taxpayer dollars!
"Just anything to be heard and noticed."
I notice you still are quite dead set against addressing the "closed-door-back-office" way your side insists and persists on doing the "PUBLIC'S BUSINESS."
I wonder why that is?
"To be part of something..."
To be part of: bulldozing all the flora and fauna of Dearborn County to make way for cement and asphalt sealing!
"Do you feel left out?"
How can one feel left out when the taxpaying citizens are free to speak their minds during the "Public Comment" portion of PUBLIC meetings.
Oh!!! Never mind!!!
"Just make sure all the planning for these larger tracts of land are kept secret and behind closed doors...This way, the likes of Fehrman and Red Apple can make their offers for such land to unsuspecting land owners who are not privy to the same inside knowledge..."
A land owner has the right to sell to anyone they want and they don't need to call the public to let them know.

Huh?
So, are you for or against public matters, concerning public monies, discussed and debated behind closed doors and only among the few, elite in this County?
Should the owners of the coveted land be kept in the dark until the the few and the privileged realtors/developers/bankers have a chance to "low-ball" these landowners on their property?
Is it better for the landowner or the realtor, et al, to make a windfall profit due to possible development?
Correct me if I am wrong, but, reading your nebulous post would lead one to believe you are for these "closed-door-back-office" type dealings...where public money has been invested.
Am I reading you right?
Rumor has it, that Fehrman and Red Apple were using such inside information to canvass possible sellers in the now failed NW Quadrant debacle. With no mention to the possible sellers of concerning the inside, what should have been PUBLIC, information.
Greed is the number one factor and motive behind the Movers and Shakers and their in-pocket political Bozos in their extreme persistance on keeping the public out of the informational loop concerning the public's business!
How is the public benefited by closed door, serial type meetings?
Such practices manifests corruption to the very core!
A person has every right to sell their land to anyone they want....HOWEVER, if it's going to be used for a difference purpose than it's currently zoned for would you not agree the public should have some input on the matter?
Ok, lets have your address and see what you think of a bar, a strip club, or a big vast industrial park right next to your property with a 4 lane road going through your back yard. Makes sense?
Should you notify your neighbors if you are planning something like this? The County wants you to, but their rules are different. 2 out of 3 Commishes will say otherwise!
2 out of 3 Commishes will say otherwise!
2 out of 3 Commishes have whored themselves out for far to long.
Election time is near.
It will be interesting to watch the "2 Commishes" backtrack as the election nears!
I wager that in the last days before the election, they both will be wearing: I'M WITH THOMPSON!!! T-Shirts.
A person has every right to sell their land to anyone they want....HOWEVER...
Unless, of course, a grandmother places a sign on her property in protest of a development...then, these so called Property Rightists crybaby all the way to the zoning office wimpering "ZONING VIOLATION!!! ZONING VIOLATION!!!
Pathetic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well if a bar or strip club or industrial park made sense to be located on my property or next to me I would need find a way to work with the development. But development does not make sense where I live.
If I lived up on the I-74 corridor I would still believe that development belonged on my land. I also think if I would have been a bit smarter I would have bought some acreage up near the I-74 corridor to make some money. But of course you all think making money is a bad thing. Well I myself like being out of debt, live in a house I own and being able to offer my children a good life.
But of course you all think making money is a bad thing.
No. Making money is not bad.
Expecting the taxpayer/citizen to contribute their hard-earned dollars to help developers make more money...that is bad.
Bad, also, is expecting communities to change their zoning requirements to fit every whim some developer may entertain.
Sorry.
But there is plenty of space available for development already existing in this county. The fact that the speculators will have to shell out a bit more capital is not the taxpayer/citizens' concern.
It is just a cost of doing business.
"If I lived up on the I-74 corridor I would still believe that development belonged on my land."
And if your land was zoned for such development, then you would have the right to develop it.
But zoning, is a communal process. The community has to be involved in and agree with the zoning rules. The wishes of a few, self-proclaimed, self-ordained, Movers and Shakers, notwithstanding.
"but development does not make sense where I live".
Your comment is funny and made me literally laugh out loud. IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE WHERE I LIVE EITHER! If you don't think it makes sense in "your back yard", why do you think it makes sense in my back yard?
How would you feel if it doesn't make sense where you live and you hear that there is a big ol' huge development planned and you heard from a friend of a friend? NOT from your County? This is AMERICA! Not a land of communism.
"...and you heard from a friend of a friend? NOT from your County?"
Save your breath!
These closed-door-back-office types will not address such a question!
They chose to cut the public from the public's business!
Because that is good for business for the DCEDI!!!
