Vacant Land Pot Growing POTential??

[Trevor Baker]

After assisting in a lengthy foreclosure process, it looks like I'm about to receive a 33 acre plot of vacant desert in Phellan, CA from an old family friend.  I don't have any desire to hold onto it very long.  I don't want to pay property taxes without any income from it.  I like assets, not liabilities!

It's about 3 miles north of and on the main road that runs north from "downtown" Phellen.  There's a railroad track that runs diagonally through it... which may preclude it from residential use.

With the general lightening of attitudes towards Marijuana, I know certain areas have made it easier to cultivate it.  Adalanto, CA is a prime example, but it is a separately incorporated city which set up an area specifically for this.  My understanding is that incorporated areas don't have such clear-cut allowances.  Phellan is in an unincorporated area of San Bernadino County.

Does anyone have experience with this?  Can I and should I promote this land as having pot growing potential?  I'd also welcome other ideas or suggestions for selling this land quickly.
