The Donald Trumped By A Golf Course?
Author: Robert Flournoy

Donald Trump is one of the greatest real estate developers in
the world and he's single-handedly taken on the real estate
development industry. But with that being said, not even he can
get away with harming the environment. Trump is contemplating
halting operations on a $2 billion golf course project on the
Scottish Coast since environmentalists are up in arms over the
development of the historic Scottish land.  Environmentalists
in the area are against moving forward, and this may end up
being the end all for the project.

Plans for the Scottish golf resort are quite lavish which is no
surprise to those who are familiar with other Trump
developments. There are many people who are all for the new
development, but at the same time there are ecologists in the
area who are not so happy about destroying the natural area in
order to construct two golf courses.  Ecologists and
birdwatchers fear that the species of the area will be harmed
if construction continues to progress in the area. They argue
that the areas ecology will be harmed beyond repair leaving a
once pristine land scarred with fairways and greens.

In February 2007 both economic and environmental assessments
will be submitted to the planners in the area. They will then
take everything into consideration and determine what types of
obstacles are in the way for development.  Momentum is growing
in favor of the ecologist, but as we all know, the Donald is
always up for a good fight.

Trump's team has suggested that they are willing to work with
the area in order to ensure that everybody gets what is best.
They have no problems with altering the Scottish golf resort in
order to meet the needs of the environment, as well as the golf
community. It will be interesting to see how this plan unfolds
as 2007 gets underway.
