LETTER: City Council lights millions on fire in Badlands mess

Updated December 2, 2022 - 3:04 pm

So now we are up to $48 million that the private property haters on the Las Vegas City Council have cost us regarding the attempted theft of the now defunct Badlands golf course (Friday Review-Journal). They tried to stop the owner from doing what he wanted to do with his property, and it didn’t work. The court has now awarded him $48 million plus costs for the taking of his personal property.

Just think what we could have done with that $48 million. Now — poof! — it all goes up in smoke.
