It must have been The Donald. I'm in direct contact with him on another thread.

I find it maddening and confusing that we have to pay for beach property. Especially property that is mostly underwater.

If the property is deeded and privately owned, why not?
If someone wants to "gift" his property to the county/state, that's great. But it shouldnt be expected.
Correct?

It's ridiculous that it is private. That it was sold in the first place. No one should have been given the right to sell it or buy it. But it was done. So now we should return it back to the people with eminent domain. All of it.
It can't be built on so any money given to "owners" should be very small.

I'm quite sure you'd feel the same if it was your property.

Even in eminent domain, there would be payment of "just" compensation, whatever that might mean.

Yes that's why I said small amount of $.

I'm sure an owner or appraiser would try to jack it up to high hell because of the high cost of gulf front but a strip of sand that you can't build on should have a low value for eminent domain. You can't even sell the sand off of it so you can't even add that value to it.

So,
What dollar amount would you suggest is offered?

$100/foot

$100/foot

Front foot? Or square foot?

$100/foot

If a front foot of dry sand is worth so little, why is it causing such a ruckus?
