I have a place in PP and received my letter yesterday. According to the letter, there was a disagreement over whether the new state regulations on septic systems apply only to new installations or existing systems as well. PP contends that it has been making legal repairs to the septic system with approval and permits from the Health Department for years without any problem. Now the Health Dept has taken the position that the new regs won't allow any further repairs. PP says they were willing to get a judicial ruling on the issue, but they were informed "verbally" by APCO that their lease would not be renewed regardless of the outcome of any legal proceedings. It was either replace the entire system throughout the park or give up. The letter states that there was no feasible way to replace the entire system due to park configurations and costs. PP decided to give up. The letter also said that a town hall type meeting will be held in the near future to discuss the exit strategy.

I don't know how in the world APCO expects everyone in the park to not only leave within the next 9 months but to also have their homes removed. If you've ever been in the park you understand. There are dozens of homes with attached covered decks and retaining walls. It would cost people thousands to do that.
