"Flannery Associates' Secretive $1 Billion Land Purchase Near Travis Air Force Base Raises Transparency Concerns"

Flannery Associates LLC, a company that has purchased nearly $1 billion worth of land near Travis Air Force Base, is facing skepticism and concerns from federal officials. The company's acquisition of 55,000 acres of dry farmland in Solano County has raised suspicions about its intentions, with local and federal officials questioning the lack of transparency. Rep.
