Floridian Investment Group Buys Rights to Alameda's Lagoons.
Mar 27, 2008
ORLANDO, Fla. (Mar. 27, 2008) - Floridian Investment Group has acquired the water rights to the lagoon system in Alameda, California.
"Beginning in the first quarter of 2009, our group will be raising alligators in the lagoons. The West Coast operations will supply zoos, aquariums and theme parks with alligators" said Joe Kingly of The Floridian Investment Group.
"The salt water lagoons are ideal for raising these reptiles" said Kingly. "The constant flushing of the system to and from the bay makes it one of the best locations we have found yet"
Keep your pets and small children away
Kingly warns residents along the lagoon system to be careful when in their backyards barbecuing. "It's just asking for trouble" said Joe Kingly. Keep your pets and small children away from the water and there shouldn't be any problems because the alligators really prefer the water.
The Alameda Citizen's Advisory council sold the water rights to the Floridian Investment Group to help the City of Alameda pay for it's ailing school system. April Ha of the Alameda Citizen's Council stated at the meeting on March 1st "This may also help reduce the school overcrowding issue".
A visitor center will be constructed along Otis Drive across from the Alameda Towne Center.
