FALL IS COMING

 Yesterday was the first full day of fall.  Cooler weather and cooler water are on the plate as September comes to an end.  A few select trees are already showing some color probably due to the extreme dry weather.


ASSESSMENT MEETING

 One of several "assessment" meeting occurred this evening at the CSCD office garage.  The CSCD board of directors spoke about the recent assessment and several facts about the assessment.  It now appears that the assessment will be $275 per "free holder."  A definition of "freeholder" was also defined.  This is good news to all property owners and helps clear up many questions and concerns.  It appears that one freeholder might own several lots but would receive only one assessment.   An increase in the water bills was also given to the public.  Prince's Lakes who sells us water has increased their fee so....the conservancy must also increase its rates.

NEW POLES!

 Earlier this summer, there were crews surveying the area for REMC and looking at telephone/power


poles that needed replacing.  Now we are seeing the actual replacement crews at work installing new telephone/power poles around the county.

LET'S GO SAILING!

 Seldom do we see sailboats on either lake.  This fellow was taking advantage of a slight wind on his sunfish sailboat today on Sweetwater Lake.


TAX ASSESSMENT MEETING

 The first of 2 Tax Assessment meetings was held this evening outside at the CSlOA Clubhouse.  There was approximately 150 people in actual attendance plus many people were on "zoom."   Many questions were asked and much information was provided by the CSCD Board of Directors about the subject.  One more public meeting will be held in October and then the Board will vote  on the Resolution.

NEW ANTIQUE STORE

 A new antique store recently opened just south of the lakes area.  The store Somewhere in Time  is located on Hoover Road near Gatesville.  Stop by and say hello!


DOCK CONSTRUCTION

 The summer may be coming to an end but waterfront dock construction is underway at various sites on both lakes.  The popularity of large sitting areas under roof and multiple lifts/slips make the projects look big.
