Leah Fowler: Homeowners near mine should be compensated

Should homeowners be compensated if Rise Gold opens the mine? Local resident Leah Fowler wants a piece of the profits. And commenter Rich Howell says he'd take 150% of market value. What do you think?

 

Nevada County naturally has been referred to as “Gold Country,” and while assuming there is still much more gold to be found in our area, reopening the Idaho-Maryland Mine really is a excellent idea.


The question, then, is excellent for whom?
