[QUOTE="skyline, post: 547058, member: 5305"] I don't have a problem with massive projects to solve energy and water shortfalls in metropolitan areas. Although if I lived in the Panhandle, I would have a big problem with the transfer of the groundwater under my property to the DFW area. Here's my concern. This is a private project funded by a private individual, who stands to make big $ off of it. Similar to the Ross Perot/Alliance Airport project north of Fort Worth. I don't think public funds should have been used on the Alliance Airport project. And I don't think that eminent domain should be allowed in any form or fashion on a project like this Mesa project. If it's in the public interest, let it be done by the government. If it's done by an individual or a corporation (however he masks it) then don't give them the ability to use eminent domain. Let him negotiate in good faith with the property owners as a private individual or corporation. Am I missing something? [/QUOTE]
