Disputed Lake Okoboji Land Sale Draws Suit
The Iowa State Conservation Commission paid 927000 to Bjornson Investment Corp for a Lake Okoboji tract now in litigation. Lake Okoboji condominium owners seek 1925000 in compensatory and 2 million in punitive damages plus an easement for access to 500 feet of shore, a marina, and fishing rights. They allege loss of exclusive lake access after the sale without owner consultation. The commission says the purchase extends Gull Point camping and public access remains limited by private development.
