We have a new gravel pit behind us. State law says they can't get within
300 feet of residential areas. In order to get at a couple million bucks worth of extra sand and gravel, the company gave adjoining landowners 150 feet of land behind their properties in exchange for allowing them to mine the other 150 feet of the setback. Any tax implications? FYI- We took this because (1) the pit was going in no matter what and (2) we wanted to make sure that no other development could go in behind us. We won't have lakefront property until somewhere around 2030 according to their plans, so that probably isn't an issue.- posted
