    I'm guessing the owner's realize those restrictions yet found reason to think the market would bear a $900k price tag.

    Who might be interested at that price?
    Who has found this a priority property? (are you speaking for NSS-CDS?)

    DogDiver seemed to make it pretty clear that the Suwannee River Water Management District had/has it as a priority as part of their land conservation efforts as I read it.

    Oh ok. Guess I couldn't make that connection. Well, I suppose it would be okay if they purchased it.

    Wow, 8 grand just for property tax per year? Seems pretty steep for a property you can't use commercially. What do people buy properties like this for? Hunting?

    SRWMD does not allow scuba diving on property it owns unless with special permit. Since some folks are not special yet I would rather get back to times with redneck parties and twice a year volunteer cleanups. SWRMD somehow missed privatization of Blue Spring with nice cave in it (next to Royal).

    If it is the site I think you are talking about, isn't the owner of this site on the board of SWRWM?

    The plan by SRWMD is to turn it over to Suwannee County for park purposes just like Little River and Royal Springs. It will take a few years to restore all the erosion damage done by years of ORV use. Then build parking and rest room facilities like at Little River. All this information is available in the public records of the management district archives.
