While I agree that the Bruce Family deserves to be fully compensated.

But one has to ask.
Is this also some back door round-about way of filling some Developers / Political pockets in 3 years?

The question is so obvious I'm embarrassed to ask: Where's the graft in that?

#8 DooDahMan, I got the impression it was the misuse of eminant domain that started the problem. Happy for the family, but also doubt its completely on the up-and-up.
