      Yep. No billionaire is honest, because no-one can actually "earn" billions of dollars. There aren't enough hours in a day to actually do the amount of work required to earn that sort of money. The money can only be obtained through ripping off other people, making all billionaires dishonest thieves.

    Keep digging! Flannery LLC isn't being honest in their dealings, and they're assuming that the sheer mass of their fortune will bulldoze over any opposition.
    The fact that this company can be so secretive both in its membership and its purchases, is disturbing. In addition, this may put them in a position primary private landowner in the county, competing with the municipalities themselves for power and control. This a small elite group of people who have already inflicted damage locally and nationally (Goodman Sachs executive, 2008!), who now want to do the same to Solano County. Look at what they did to SF and the greater region, making housing unaffordable and giving no thought to how their decisions impacted communities and their workers.
    The indifference they have to the farmers and the environment of the Delta Wetlands is telling. This is the time for the communities to rally, coming together to stop this disaster.

They whine and sue and cry wolf and shed aligator tears when they don't get what they want 4. Even if they utilize the gas field under the land, it will still find a way to seep toxic and explosive gasses to the surface; just what a utopia should be built on 5. (IMO) Anyone who uses the word "utopia" to describe this (or any large project), is selling you the ice from a fridge as colder and better than what you have in yours. There will be alot of issues these billionaires can't see on paper, no matter how much money they have. Walt Disney himself tried to do this on a smaller scale, and people were miserable and no one wanted to live they way they did. It was also dubbed "a utopia". And 6.

    Why would you have allowed some mystery company to come in and buy up all this property over all these many years without digging deeper into them first? If none of you in the city manager's office felt comfortable with any of these deals and if you didn't feel as though you're getting enough answers to your questions why would you allow them to go ahead with the sale of any of these massive areas of land?
    It would seem to me that if somebody was trying to muscle their way in and do so clandestinely that, that would be even more of a reason FOR you TO deny them the sale of the land NOT go through with, it. My other thought on the matter is that they were plotting out this land to put million-dollar structures on the land and that what they wanted to do is bring in the billion-dollar high-roller individuals first and then I guess put people of a lesser financial status in and around the edges of the property.

If it is going to be self-sustaining then they can make it it's own county and instead of Kern County they can call it "Karen County" because that's who will live there.

We could easily have something similar, except that the Davis family, has been selling off and developing parcels from hundreds to now 5 thousand acres for new neighborhoods.

    There should be federally mandated caps on any kind of taxes to individuals in anyway

    I just had without warning a land developer cut fences on our 40 year old appurtenant easement road .deed filed in kendall county tx. He has violations of this deed.he iz subdividing putting in new large entrances. Cutting across this road,paving also. County and sheriff office say its OK. A civil case if I want to pursue it. HE Ran me and my family down with verbal abuse .Said he did it cuz he could. Letter s to attorney General ignored. So watch it. They don't care about you at all.

    Threatening farmers ? Mob action could result in a RICO Charge.

    suing farmers for $510 million? You know the farmers are going to sue them back for more with a local jury trial and take the land they just bought

      Is this just another land grab to take valuable agricultural lands out of use to control the Food Market... remember, Bill Gates and other billionaires, maybe even some of these, are buying up Prime Farmlands in other states also... Farming is supposedly a major contributor to Greenhouse Gases... so buy them up and NOT farm them, Not raise cattle or other valued crops... increasing the costs of food to force people to change their eating habits... are these people conspiring with our Dystopian Government to subjugate the population and force us to go vegan?... this would be a secret long term program... probably started under Obama...
