10/24/18 @ 4:25 p.m. - At a Special Meeting held this morning, the Board of County Commissioners discussed the most recent publications by Raydient/Rayonier including the document titled "The Truth About Nassau County's Dispute with Raydient/Rayonier, Inc." and Mike Bell's (Rayonier, Inc. Vice President' of Public Affairs) "Where's the Beef". Attached is the County Commission's response to both of those publications for those that are interested.

The Board has been very transparent regarding the dispute with Raydient and has made every effort to provide the residents with detailed information supporting the County's beliefs that Raydient not only committed to providing the land for public recreation space inside the ENCPA, but would also fund any necessary construction for elements such as ball fields. We urge anyone with interest in this topic to visit our website to find the County's initial statement, as well as documents and videos (including this morning's Special Meeting) that we feel supports the County's understanding of the representations made by Raydient with regards to funding public recreation space. We will continue to update this page as new information becomes available so be sure to check back often.
