Xanadu Diamond Enthusiast	Posted Hide Post Thank you for clarifying that for me frankvan. I can now understand why the home owners were given the 2000 price for their homes, as that is what was offered when they began their protest. I do think that charging them rent is rubbing salt in the wound though!
