Special Opportunities Fund and Bulldog Investors (NYSE: SPE), holding 2.1% of Tejon Ranch Co. (NYSE: TRC), are urging shareholders to elect Andrew Dakos, Phillip Goldstein, and Aaron Morris to TRC's ten-person Board of Directors. The investors criticize TRC's management of the Tejon Mountain Village (TMV) project, highlighting that despite being declared "fully entitled" since 2013, no development has begun. The company has spent over $100 million ($4 per share), including $70 million to buy out a joint venture partner, yet the land remains unchanged after twelve years. Dakos argues that shareholders' complaints about management accountability and questionable expenditures have negatively impacted TRC's stock price.
