I say, forget what the previous owners thought. If the public needs a way to access some public land (the beach), build a public road. If the way is blocked by private land, that's what eminent domain is for. Seize some land and compensate Khosla. That's what would happen to regular people.
- bnjms 7y agoThat's what was done before he bought the land though? An easement was placed on it allowing for people to pass through to the beach right? It's the same situation as having a sidewalk in front of your house.
- jonathlee 7y agoNo, the actual previous owners of the were running access to the beach as a business. It was a road (driveway) they built and charged fees to use, not public.
- arcticbull 7y agoThat may have been illegal too, honestly.
