Biscuit Run Questions

Published by Waldo Jaquith on January 10, 2010 in Business. 6 Comments

Edgar, a local investor, e-mailed me three questions that local media outlets ought to be asking about Biscuit Run:

Did the original Biscuit Run owners get paid in full?
Did Hunter ever really sign a deal with Ryan Homes, or was that just talk to sell shares?
Does the bank involved—at least the one bank that has been identified—have a lien on the property for the loan, and if so, how can someone “donate” land to the state if a lien is on it, unless the state or Hunter or someone has made some collateral guarantee to the bank?

I’m not smart enough to know how to get answers to these questions, but here’s hoping that somebody does. There might be a story here.
