Lake County buys swamp land to create park and game preserve
The Lake County board purchased swamp land between Clermont and Groveland from the State Improvement Commission for 25 dollars over a prior bid, aiming to turn it into a natural park and game preserve with a road. A Lakeland man protested, arguing no public use had been shown for the land. State's Attorney Jesse W. Hunter said the land would preserve natural beauty and support wildlife. The prior purchaser had been told the land lay in Lake County, not LakeLAND, and later abandoned the deal after tax issues.
