Agree with everthing that has been posted. The Western part of the Lake is possibly too isolated. I don't want to see the amusement park atmosphere or rip roaring Juke Joints. It would be nice to have a few little country grocery stores/convenience stores and maybe at least one or two decent restaurants on that side of the Lake. Equality has one little convenience place with limited hours. Alex City is a good 15 or so miles one way. I could see the inconvenience for full-timers. In comparrison, Dadeville has more of the above which is a plus but does it sacrifice with the additonal boat traffic and lack of serenity?

Part of the ideal solution could be growth in the towns like Alex City and Dadeville without overflowing onto the Lake itself. I don't know if the Lake will support other than seasonal growth with the water draw down. The scales might be tipped if there were full pool all year or if a major employer hits the immediate area.
