Summary
After 20 years of stalled plans, a massive undeveloped land parcel in East Arcadia, Georgetown County, is finally poised to become protected green space. Once earmarked for over 3,000 homes and corporate offices, the land was never sold — until now. Nonprofits Ducks Unlimited and the Open Space Institute are teaming up to acquire it, aiming to shield it from development and bolster flood protection and natural habitats. The county council has approved the initial purchase, with hopes of securing state funding this fall — and if all goes well, the land could be officially theirs by early 2027. Residents are already calling for public access, with safeguards in place. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
