Disagree. I believe the county will intervene and condemn his land. If I was on the board, I would vote to condemn. Call it a public park, give him cost + fees and maybe 10% premium, and send him crying but packing.
This is similar to those that purchase an expired domain name, post some porn, and then make the person who previously owned the domain name pay an excessive price to regain it. Distasteful, but legal, it is also totally avoidable if people would pay attention.
This is also not possible any more, since the Net Domain people (I forget their name offhand) has an Arbitration process and you can get your domain name adversarily dispossessed.
Thanks for the update on the domain name issue- I was not aware of that development.
