You are correct about that, but that's still pretty cheap.

"his land is currently valued at $83 an acre" =/= " the market assessment is $83 an acre"

Are you always this obtuse, or is this a special thing you do in St.George threads?

Link to where Baton Rouge wants it annexed???
Since the assessor's office indicated BR officials were nosing around his office trying to see who owned which properties in the area, I assumed BR wanted this area annexed.
Now I could be an arse for assuming, maybe Lambert wants in on his own.
But it doesn't matter, why would BR accept 630 acres of unimproved property to nowhere?

I thought LSU owned the land near the casino that needed to be annexed for the casino to be annexed? Anybody have a map of the 630 acres the article is referencing?

The map I saw doesn't appear to "touch" L'aberge; but I could be wrong.

38 million
9+2-2=11
Bodi White withdrew his bill
The annexation is a done deal
Rainey is getting paid
$100k raised
Signatures for 2 years
No SG paperwork filed

I get it. You realize you were wrong and now you're trying to save face to cover up your stupidity.
The acreage is valued (market value) at $519,500, not $51,950. Its assessed value is 10% of its market value.
So it is NOT "valued" at $83/acre which is what you first said and is wrong, just as I said in my first reply to you.
That is its assessment value (actually closer to $82, but whatever....).
If you live in a $300,000 house you don't tell people its "value" is $30,000. You don't even tell people for tax purposes its "value" is $30,000. You think of your house's value for tax purposes as $300,000.
Come to think of it, maybe YOUR doublewide IS valued at $30,000......

I wonder if Woody Jenkins will file another lawsuit if this acreage is annexed.
After all, he said it's about diluting police coverage and another 630 acres into the city will certainly do that. His lawsuit is not about St George.....

I see no real reason for BR to annex this property, you?
It's not needed to "get" to the casino".
In the overall SG deal, I can't see how it fits in.

It may simply be a case where a property owner does not want to risk the unknown of a new city so he's asking to stay with the devil he knows. Maybe he plans on developing that property commercially and he thinks it will be more valuable within BR than SG.
Then again, his property might be a pathway to get to the casino and that's why it's being done.

It doesn't appear that way on the map linked here.
Screwy if you ask me, but I'm just one observer.
BTW, the property has sat there undeveloped for decades. Being unincorporated hasn't mattered, and being in or out of BR or SG won't matter unless the parish booms in a huge way.
Your point about the city not really wanting it might be correct and it's all a ploy for Lambert to get some attention.

OK, bud. I referenced tax purposes. Twist it however you want. If you want to think you are the only one who understands assessments then go ahead and think that.
And my trailer is worth at least $31,000. She got new tires at walmarks last week.

Hopefully from the new one in SG at the corner of blue and Burbank.

I also know that after your embarrassing mistake in this thread you will also always remember how it's done.
