Re: Activists Triumph in Nygard Dredging Case.

The Tribune, 26 October, 2017.

The initial explanation for the increase in property size was said to be a mysterious ‘accretion’, but dredging has probably proved to be more efficient. Still, if the property size has nearly doubled due to the dredging, surely the treasury has benefitted from a similar increase in property taxes that we assume have been paid.

However, the activists should be careful not to p.o. this gentleman too much, or we may once more hear those ominous words: “Victory! Victory! We took our country back”.
