My guess? Someone at the EPA wanted that property for themselves.

Or one of the neighbors had a friend at the EPA, and the neighbor wanted to keep the lot open without buying it.

Even On a much lower level of government, my girl friend has a farm and raises different kinds of farm animals, right now they have changed to Scottish Highland Cattle...but years back her husband brought some used well digging equipment and set it up and started to dig a new well himself...After the equipment came to the attention of the township, they came out and red tagged his equipment while he was a work...He removed the tagging and continued digging...He got a visit from the township in charge of permits and told him he had no permit to dig a well and he must stop, they red tagged it again...

He removed the tagging and continued to dig a new well...the next time the inspector came to tell him to stop he had a sidearm and stopped the guy at his property line and told him that if they trespassed again on his land without permission, he would meet them with the gun in his hand....It was his equipment and there was no well digger they could threaten with removal of license. He told them on his property he could do any Fu**ing thing he wanted and didn't need a permit to dig his own well..(I am using clean language here, leave it to your imagination what a pissed off farmer would say)

They left him alone to finish digging his own well. He is the type of guy I wouldn't want to be on the wrong side of and the inspector believed he would do what he said he would do....He is a quite bad ass from the soles of his feet to the top of his head....

A real sweet guy, this was about 20 years ago...I just got a email from her that her husband is ticked off that he cannot legally shoot his son-in-law. But he'd give you the shirt off his back if you needed it...

When I say he is a nice guy, I mean it, just don't send some dumb ass to tell him what he can and cannot do on his property. Townships are facists also.....
