Here is my biggest complaint. Even today, the County could condemn a leasehold just like it could condemn a fee simple property. Due process compliance would be required, but under both title holding conditions, the public could open up more beach at any time as a legitimate public purpose and with proper compensation to those holding the lease or title.
So this idea that there is a distinction or hinderance to expanding public portions of the island is simply a false flag. It ultimately comes down to equality and fairness. I do not understand the agenda of this group.
