Does the phrase "Thread Hijack" have any meaning to you?
My God, you're like a broken record.

All it will take is one 15 year old teenage girl getting preyed upon by the convicted sex offender and the eagle nest will be a very empty nest!

So why would this developer chose Albert Lea? This sort of development would make perfect sense in Clear Lake where the housing market it going through the roof.
Clear Lake also has the amenities such as a golf coarse, down town retail, larger retail within 10 miles, a good job base in Mason City, The Surf, and an all around attractive town to live in...
Something isn't right with this guys plans

What really confuses me is the fact that there are new, high dollar homes being built in a county that is constantly losing population.
Who do they figure will buy these houses?

Albert Lea is in the making of suburbia.

It seems that these "rocket scientists" believe that we should ride on the success of other communities (Diamond Jo's) and they also feel that doctors from our prestigious ALMC will buy these properties.

Maybe diamond jo's should of bought this course and not arrowhead...
I talked to some of the current members and they hope to pull something off to save the course. I think this will be a tricky one to save if they want to keep it private or semi-private. Those days are gone here in good old ALBERT LEA. I would like to see someone own it and turn it into a public course. I think it will have a good chance to make it if it was open to the public. Private or semi-private will not work anymore because not enough members.
