I believe the property in question is 11730 NE 72ND Blvd, Pin# D14=012. A permit #AG2015-00023 was applied for and canceled because “Barn is located in flood zone”.

Permit BDF2015-00009 was issued 8/19/2015 for “Short Description: New Horse Barn”.

My guess is it was approved because a water retention pond was added to the plan. I have not seen the site plan.

Good Detective work. It must gonna be one heck of a "retention pond", about the size of Lake Michigan.

The same source told me there's going to be a COSTCO and a Morton's of Chicago as well. They are also considering a Walgreen's, a Citizen's First bank and a Villages golf cart store, due to lack of availability of these services

Ooo. I'd rather see a Del Friscos or Smith and Wolinskey's (?sp). Morton's is good, but not at the top of my dance card.

That must be some barn. I though they were digging to China with the amount of dirt that was being dug up.

Did you look into the new place? It's call Daily Rate Assisted Living for the not too Needy. Turns out, it's a Holiday Inn.

actually they started moving sand and topsoil to assist with the fill in the Fruitland park area. While digging in the swampy area they found a huge peat reserve which they sold to Black Cow..they are just creating a big lake for the compound and profiting off of it. Not a bad business move actually.

Not impossible.

It will be an under-water COSTCO -- completely submerged. How long can you hold your breath?

Usually they try to keep it a secret IF they find something! It puts a real damper on timely home construction.
