At the crossroads about a half mile south of my house, the SW corner 40A sold to hotshot realtor son of long-time top realtor in the area. He declared he was planning to build a tree/shrub nursery in to grow plants and trees for his many developments. That 40A would not perk, and was in the area the Township had a formal plan to remain in Ag. Young man needed a pole barn to keep the equipment for his nursery and built a nice, little building. Then sold the property. Never put in any nursery plants, but the barn is always full of boats, cars, etc. One guy does plant a small veggie garden behind the building, what the BTO sprayer guy does not smoke off.
Same intersection, the NE corner 40A sold to loud-mouthed car dealer- he also dug about 40 holes to perk test, but they all filled with water. His next plan was to build a 40A dirt bike track for his kid to play on. That idea did not fly with the Township, and the field has been rented for field crops since.
One case, the Township bent their own rules to allow something that did not agree with them, and in the other they did not allow something that actually did fit within the rules. (My Mom was clerk for the board at the time, and explained the ordinances as she understood them.)
I didn't speak out in any direction on either case, but have to say it worked out well for me in the end.

After Captain Cook's exploration of the east coast in 1770 the British Government decided to establish a penal colony in Australia. The first fleet arrived in 1788 and consisted mainly of convicts who were poorly equipped and new little of farming techniques. The colony remained far from self-supporting and it was not until the early 1800's that things started to improve. Free settlers started to arrive, they followed the explorers across the mountains and where land was suitable set up farms. T
