I live just north of Palmdale and have been following this for months. It is much, much worse than any of you think. The Antelope Valley Healthcare District (AKA the Markist Government Entity) already owns land in Palmdale on which they, for the past 10 or 15 years have been promising to build a hospital. Enter UHS, a private health care organization. They buy land, obtain permits and actually break ground on their hospital. The Marxist Government Entity doesn't want or need the property, they just don't want competition from a private comercial hospital so they file an eminent domain action to seize the property so UHS can't build their hospital.
NO. You were right the first time.
