This should be a concern. A small group in DeLuna have been talking to a lawyer. This pipeline,to my understanding,will probably be put in by 2029. Sabal will offer nothing or a very small amount for the value of the property they take. It is important that you see an eminent domain lawyer asap and that an eminent domain appraisal is done before Sabel lowballs you. We have a small group in DeLuna that have met with an attorney already. I hope this informs all resident who reside along the present gas line.
Where is the source material for your post? I'm seeing no reference to The Villages at all, with regards to Enbridge (Sabal Trail) forcing their way onto privately owned properties within the borders of The Villages.

I DO see one instance (which was well publicized awhile back) of one guy living in DeLuna who had a 500-gallon tank with extensive piping buried under his yard, but that was a local dispute and had nothing to do with the Sabal pipeline.
