Seeing the high-handed manner that the town has taken, I doubt anyone got to any offer.

Neighboring properties were all sold without entering into eminent domain proceedings.

Everybody has a price. It's my impression that the Sahas are merely holding out in order to bilk the taxpayers with an exorbitant price that exceeds fair market value.

When someone holds the loaded gun of eminent domain to your head, some turn into 'willing' sellers.

Everybody has a price.

And it is the Owners right to accept or reject the offer -- even if it is 'reasonable', excepting only those things mentioned in the Constitution. I don't believe a golf course, or a museum, merit such use by government.
