Thanks for the update!

I heard they were fencing the entire property at quite large expense. Hmmmmm.

Also that they were doing a number of studies that are ordinarily only done when a developement order is applied for. Hmmmmmm.

Why would you need these guys if you didn't have something pretty complex and specific in mind?

It is somthing big, but what? You don't keep silent because your planning a housing development.
Remember its 86 square miles of land

So first Fulltime wants us to think the indians are putting casinos in PCB and now Disney World is coming in next door. What's next Fulltime?

Never said the Northern Trust land was a Disney development. I just pointed out that something is in the developemnt process on that land - that's as clear as a goat's ass going up a hill. As far as gambling in PCB, disagree all you like. I'm just pointing out what I think is a likely scenario given the current state of gambling expansion in Florida. Geographically, PCB would make sense, and I'm sure that is not lost on the gambling folks. What's next - I don't know Santiago ... maybe a new airport.

I'm not for gambling at all, but there could be something to the theory considering that there is already a dog track in Ebro.

"Commissioners met individually with representatives of the Knight newspaper family recently to hear plans for possible development of the large tract of land." -- Is that so they don't know how much graft the other got paid/offered?

They are being very closed mouth on any upcoming projects, but have let it be known they have found some artifacts at the location, including an old grist mill and the old CCC camp. -- Are they trying to sell swampland back to the county as a "historical site?"

Would pop-up pictures help, Santiago? Yes, the article was about Joe land and not the Northern Trust piece. After reading the article on Joe, the thought occured to me that perhaps the Knight family was contemplating a similar, in globo, Army Corps permit for their 50,000 acres.

As far as my gambling expertise, time will tell.

I would think right now any major development is a real crap shoot.

...a Waste Treatment Plant?

This might explain what's in the works on the Northern Trust land.

So what are you saying that it explains? The Northern Trust is going the route of getting a USACE permit rather than individual permitting. And you're basing this on the fact that it's in a similar location and of a similar size? I love the part about the commissioners suggesting conservation uses such as "hunting, fishing and horse riding". I'll bet that they hired the high powered law firm to help them design horse trails on their $500 million property.

Waste Treatment plants stand to make a great deal of money.

Hey Santiago, I have no idea what it explains, nor do I really care. Are you a Washington County Commissioner? Do you have all of your limbs? I'm confused ... have you been drinking?

I might be a commissioner and I do have all of my limbs. Just don't ask me about me teeth.
