re: Question for land aficionados
Posted by CharleyLake on 5/10/24 at 5:13 pm
Good point. I checked my files relating to two parcels of grazing land in Western Calcasieu Parish. In 2014 our family received an unsolicited offer from a company in Alexandria, LA. We learned "--------has completed its inspection/due diligence at each of the properties under contract. -----is sati...

Many property owners wind up selling for an offer far less than market value becasuse they have no way to know if he offer to sell individual land, minerals rights, and pipeline servitudes is fair. They know we aren't sure abut the value.
They also know that we just want to take the easiest pat...

Bard is absolutely correct when he replied that they will be back. Find out why these people want to purchase the property.
I think that you will get plenty of sound advise at that point. ...

Sorry for the delayed response. I have been on an extended vacation and just returned home.
Find out if the pipeline company would agree to multiple renewable term agreements as opposed to a one time perpetual term. The renewable term options allow the landowners to receive the income for the in...

Sound advice.
Upon my understanding most of these "takings" are about compensation and result in settlements.
I have been keeping up with Port Arthur Pipeline (PAPL) activity in the Sulphur and Carlyss areas in Calcasieu Parish. PAPL has filed suits in Federal Court against several land owner...

I have quite a bit of experience with eminent domain. Almost of it was with pipeline companies.
Since you might deal with the government, I suggest that you read about the acquisition process with the I-10 Calcasieu River Bridge project. This process is more favorable to landowners than it was w...
re: What bird is this?

It is because it is a young hawk. At maturity the upperparts will be blue-gray. Likely a Cooper's Hawk as opposed to Sharp-shinned Hawk due to its size....

I just read about the Sackett ruling. It seems to suggest that less mitigation and permitting will be required. Would you care to speculate how it would affect the property value potentially for sale to an industrial developer? FWIW the parcel located south of Maplewood/Sulphur....

I do recall that the evaluation would no longer be valid after five years. There were some maps associated with the report which was done by Providence Engineering of Baton Rouge. They did provide come Army Corps numbers for clarification upon my recollection. I will reach out to them.

Wetlands JD interpretation help requested
Posted by CharleyLake on 3/10/24 at 10:31 am
A Jurisdictional Determination of an 80 acre parcel of property was determined to be 38% wetlands. It was approved by the Army Corps of Engineers. (A few acres are (23) non-wet and 4 acres are 100% wet.)
Does this mean that 38% of every acre of the property is "wet" and must be mitigated?
Is...
re: Dakorien Moore and Caden Durham lead nations #1 4x100 relay in the nation
Posted by CharleyLake on 2/10/24 at 8:24 am
For comparison Barbe HS won the 4 x 100 relay in 2002 with a 40.78 which remains the record for Class 5A. I do not think another Louisiana team has run a sub 41 since. Former LSU running back Justin Vincent was a relay team member.
The time of 40.78 was recognized as 2nd in the nation but it did no...
