A plan to seize beachfront property at Fourchon has raised questions about the government’s right and need to take private property.
Lafourche’s Beachfront Development District will begin efforts to seize a portion of the undeveloped beach and land leading up to it. Officials aim to open it to vehicle traffic and eventually public development.
Local landowners said they will fight the forced sale because it is their right to develop the property.
Officials seek to take ownership of a 44-acre tract of land at the end of La. 3090. It is owned by the Caillouet Land Corp.
