[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the flooding experienced by these properties was exacerbated by new development that was approved after they were constructed, then I can't see how the locality can not be compelled to purchase them. [/quote] Why should it be on the locality and not the developer?[/quote] The locality approved the developer's project without taking into account stormwater management. [/quote] How is that possible though? [b]They have laws/regulations about this. [/b]Did the project not comply?[/quote] Hence the conclusion that builders/developers bribe officials to gain access to un-buildable land. [/quote]
