All this discussion it fairly moot, by several hundred years. Property, no matter how valuable or how worthless, is bought and paid for many, many, many, many, many, many times through the years, each time, getting more valuable. The more land that is developed surrounding it, just makes pristine land more rare, thus more valuable. If Walton County had not bought these parcels, with TDC funds, in a particularly good deal, then these parcels would have been worth more money tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow.
