Le Mars property owner denounces highway access land grab
A Le Mars owner criticizes the Highway Commission for using access control to seize land along a state highway. He says a 60 foot wide access road would be built and maintained by the state, leaving his property effectively reserved and unusable or sellable. He argues the bill shifts costs to the public while funding a land grab.
