Here's Charlie & Reggie talking high finance :

[Charley Lillard]

LOL...Actually we were congratulating him on his apparent victory with the Seaside city council. He is wanting to build a Hotel condo project in a redevelopement area where his shop is and the council voted for him to proceed with purchasing the properties he needs. There are about a dozen houses he will have to buy. If the sellers are too demanding the city will assist him with eminent domain in acquiring them. Guy with the brown cap is is brother.

[musclecarjohn]

He's been fighting the city on that issue for years,still surprised they're giving him the green light.
Having lived here since 1970,I've had several dealings with Reggie and his crew.No point churning up old dirt so I'll just leave it at that...

[/ QUOTE ] Maybe the auction houses will start to help the bidders acquire his cars via eminent domain too when the "demands" are too high

Screw eminent domain....

[427king]

Belair, all you have to do is hide under a mushroom for seven years on someones property and you will be able to claim it as yours. I just got in from checking my trees to make sure you arent camping out with the keebler elves

Now this really hits close to home and I do have a problem with people like Reggie and those who "congratulate" him. I just lost my house a little over a year ago to a development company that seduced the city council and acquired the right to declare my home "blighted" because it was on a dead end street and dead end streets are of little use to a community as a whole. Did you also know that 2-bedroom houses, regardless of condition, are considered "blighted"? Sorry about the rant but if you and your family were misplaced out of your home so a wealthy man can build a shopping center where your house is located(my case) maybe you would understand. Not a highway, not a school, but a shopping center. Figure that one out. Sure, I made a lot of money, but a forced move is a terrible thing to endure. Eminent domain abuse is a very bad thing for this country.
