The purchase “under duress’ of the Dam store, was a legal maneuver by the county to avoid litigation in the future to make this family whole. Shame on this county for taking advantage of this residents legal peral in a time of need. I hope the entire citizenship of the county rises up and makes this family/community hole.
Notice how all public officials go silent after the first press conference,,,, “that’s legal” department.
To the county legal department, “no pie for you” forever banned. Unless you make things right , full restoration of everything.
I hope this store can be rebuilt better than ever. I will come down for pie 🥧 for the reopening from Canada 🇨🇦 🙏👻
If the county purchased it, where are they able to re-build?
WHY purchase something that is going to just be gone - land and all? maybe it was a "THANKYOU" to the family for 100 yrs of service? but seems INDULGENT to them? on the County's dime?
@@LAFITZ10 These were folks with very modest means, it's a terrible tragedy something like this happened. Not only affecting them but many others as well.
@@LAFITZ10The county is responsible for the dam condition.
@@LAFITZ10 They can't just seize and destroy your property. They have to give you something for it. This isn't the old Soviet Union.
@@LAFITZ10 Cause the people still own everything within their property lines, even if that land is now 100' lower and underwater.
Why did they immediately demolish it though??? 🧐🤦🏻♂️
Really sorry to hear that! was there many years ago. It's a beautiful place.
Good for the county! Buying what is about to be consumed by the river saves so many folk so many heart aches. I noticed the county demolished their newly-purchased structure when no one was looking. Good optics.
I really need someone to explain to me why this was torn down. Either the failed dam takes the building out, or it survives for another day. Why tear it down and make that destruction 100% certain?
Big money can't buy good ole memories 😢😢
Enough money can, lol. Also this house is probably about the fall in anyways.
Dam Store Matters!!
Why hasn't the dam been blown up? Why are you letting the river ruin everythin?
They only tore it down so they didn't have to deal with the hassle of moving it
They couldn't move it in time. It takes days to set up that kind of equipment. With the ground being unstable now, it's too late
@@chriswright6068 and that assumes the building was in good enough condition to even be moved without additional structural support.
Yeah I'm in agreement with you. Just not enough time to move it.
Probably would have had to start the moving process long before the dam failed.
Complete and utter failure by the people in charge.
Dodged a lawsuit probably
Dodged a lawsuit? I'd say they're sure to get a lawsuit for compensation from the owners of the store. That store wasn't in danger of being destroyed by the river.
@@mattbosley3531 if they took compensation willingly they cant sue
Partial failure of the dam!? What's the dam controlling now? Better yet, what's the dam *_doing_* now!?🤔
technically the dam didn't fail, the river just went around it
What's the dam doing now?
Pushing the river into the side of the bank.
The dam did not fail; the Earth did. God's faulty construction to blame again.
Actually, the dam _did_ fail. From the Associated Press:
As water flows peaked, debris plugged parts of the structure and the west abutment of the dam partially failed.
Even though the concrete structure is still standing, the west abutment isn't. A partial failure _is_ a failure.
The dam Needs to be torn down at this point
So sad,,,,
That's a Dam Shame!!
Best comment!
Are the owners going to reopen their business elsewhere?
Start a go fund me titled "Give a Dam"
❤❤❤
Dammit!!!!!!!
What the F?
Free the Water!!!
I have a friend who could have saved the building .
The really didnt try to move it.
Sadly there is more water coming.
They keep generating rain storms up her in Northern Minnesota nearly every day and all the run off here makes it's way down where all the flooding is taking place.
It is a sad evil world we live in today.
that river runs south to north
@@johnjacobs4625
"That river runs north to south" and your point is what?
What is feeding that river?
Where is all that water coming from?
@@grounded7362 I'm sure you claim to have a high IQ.
Democrat state
Oh dear, another victim of microcephaly. Try harder, Vlad!
Damn democrats and their... flooding caused by rainfall
Very sad, but God will take care of the people.
Really God made the flood. Is this what you mean by him taking care of the people
@@redeyedmongoose2963 read the Bible and you will understand.
@@dronevideos7I’ve read the Bible-four different versions! I’ve also read the Book or Mormon, the Bhagavad-Gita, the Satanic Bible, and the myths and legends of the Native Americans, the Greeks, the Japanese, and other cultures as well, to say nothing of studying up on erosion, weather, climate patterns, etc. Everybody has their own stories that try to explain the unexplainable, but I prefer the science. And by not realizing the potential danger that the Dam Store was in when the water first breached the abutment and taking action accordingly, the town or local government might have been able to save and move the store structure in its entirety before the house collapsed. Now they took the “easy” way out and simply demolished a historical landmark, and they have only themselves to blame.
I am sorry. We are not really talking about the same thing here brother. I am just giving hope to all Christians that no matter what the tragedy is, God will continue to love them and give to them in other ways that will help. No one died in this situation, and I expect that people will step up and build a new dam store and home as well. It is all part of how the Holy Spirit helps in the long run brother.
@@dronevideos7 You are aware that there are people of other faiths in this country, no? And also, it’s actually _sister_ and I happen to be a Wiccan. Blessed Be!
It's that Russian water doing the damage
Yes, I understand. We have a Russian River here in California.
Their was know fault in the dam remove the wood
