From Bob:
"Your logic makes too much sense. Unfortunately the folks that elect this esteemed mayor, for the most part, don't live on the lake. They are what you pass by on the way to your lake home. These voters care little about the lake unfortunately. On need only look at the litter on the highways and roads in the counties surrounding the lake to see that.
The only way to get action on this issue, I am afraid, is to go beyond state pressures and bring in Federal environmental experts, file lawsuits, and encourage media pressure. If I was retired on the lake and had the time I would make this my full time pursuit but, alas, I am but a "weekend warrior" with little time to spare beyond a letter here and there...
We need some activists at the lake with the time to organize efforts...money I can give, its time I don't have like many people posting here...."
From au67:
"I think you would be surprised at the (and I choose my words carefully) apparent animosity that the city mayor/councilmen and county commissioners have for lake residents. I think they see us as elitest who look down upon all non-lake residents. Sadly, those who do not understand that Lake Martin and it's development is the economic engine for this area are the ones who make the major decisions."
From LTL:
And you wonder why you get that attitude? If the shoe fits........
