there is a raggedy farm with dilapidated buildings half falling down, near the corner of Jasmine and 180th St (Airport Rd). is that the farm in question?? if so, it is really -deserving- of being torn down ... even if it were other farmers complaining, and not just the "roos". people here on FFL seem to be jumping to the conclusion that Vedic City is automatically "wrong" for this aggressiveness. (just like the grand-standing county supervisors want you to) but if its that farm im thinking of, its -long overdue- and you might even agree, if you saw it! i dont live there any more, but maybe Rick, Doug or Alex Stanley could post a picture??
