title: A landowner outside town wants
---

A landowner outside town wants to recreate a European village on a large tract of farmland. He's gotten all the correct government approval, has a wonderful set of plans drawn up, but, despite successful similar developments elsewhere, he's [having trouble finding](http://www.onlineathens.com/stories/092500/new_0925000004.shtml) a developer to actually build the place. I got to see the land during the Tour de Sprawl a few weeks ago, and I would love to live there. It looks like it'll be priced outside my range, though.
