So we just found out our neighbors sold the 1800 acres next to us and there will be a an active rock mine and excavation on the other side of the fence from us. For those familiar with the Uvalde area it is the same people and will be a similar operation to the one in the NW quadrant of 90 and the Nueces. The "miners" have called and want to buy our land also as a buffer for their operation. Haven't really had a chance to think about it or digest but wanted to see if anyone had any experience with it. Our land is all recreation and hunting. There is no historical significance (family land, etc.) but we did buy it over 20 years ago so there is still a lot of blood, sweat, tears and sentimental value to on that chunk of rock & dirt.
I would think it would either not affect our hunting or push more deer to us with loss of habitat so that would be a plus if I'm correct. But, I also think it will be dusty all the time and loud. Another negative is this was by far our biggest neighbor as 2 of our other sides are bordered my smaller ~125 ac tracts. What are your thoughts?
And while I'm at it I think our 2 options would be to keep our place and deal with anything that comes up as a result, including potential of land losing value next to something like that. OR, sell and try to get a couple hundred more acres a little closer to home.
So what are your thoughts??
