i don't know who sent the letters but can tell you some things about the septic systems. The are septic tanks that service two places, not sure but would not be surprised if in some spots the service three. There are field lines under driveways, parking areas, i know of one that is under a gravel road, have seen it leaking water and reported it and they put more gravel and dirt over it so it would not seep out. There are places with pump out tanks that send the liquids up the hill to the field lines. The way places are set up on the side north of the marina store they are very close to each other and have rooms built on, some are completely enclosed. There are small campers up to very large doublewide homes, trees have grown up close to them and would have to be cut down to get the homes and or campers off the lots. Then i think different counties have different laws in Alabama as well as Georgia where some people are from that will not allow mobile homes older than five to ten years to be brought in. Pleasure point had a rule that nothing older than 5 or maybe 6 years old was the limit. This will turn into a very costly process for some folks, some will just walk away and leave it to APCO to remove the things out, and then you have docks, sea walls of every kind that will be left there to be cleaned up. This could cost APCO a pretty penny to clean up. if they have to dig up all the old tanks and field lines that’s an even bigger mess, there is no one that knows where they are.

Something else i noticed on the APCO recreation plan map is that the area north of pleasure point has a place similar to PPP that is listed as being removed, in the description it says it is a former day use area, nothing about a campground or a mobile home park being there? it’s named Lakeside. Does anyone know if the place at the end of Dennis Creek down past River Oak is still there? it's land is owned by APCO and i heard years ago they were told to leave as well but have not been up that way in a long time, it does not show one the map and is not mentioned in the plans? Wow what a big mess that is going to be if they do not get it resolved but it is my opinion they had no intention of renewing the lease before any of the septic issues came up. One last thing, Wicker Point is right across from Pleasure point and that Land is owned by Russell Lands, just sayin.
