There's a ranch out my back door that was slated for 1000 homes to start with a commercial complex, fire station, and school included. Would have done a lot for our community including solving our traffic problem by building a bypass around town. There was the possibility of building out to 3000 homes. The no growthers attacked them hard and they backed out but in reality it probably had more to do with the economy than the no growthers. Phil We’re seeing a lot of the same thing here in California.

I know they've been struggling as of late (along with many other national builders), and that they have made major cutbacks and plan to restrict spending over the next several months.

I have been todl that they are in trouble in other parts of the country and needed the cash from the sale, but I can't verify that.
