well it looks like alabama power is in a money grab. new info out says january 1 , permit of 200 bucks is required to make repair on your own pier.  when l complained, l was told al. power was staying in line with other states on hydro dam charges.  isnt it funny that every state around us has a lottery but al. doesnt want it here, yet when there is money to grab and other states are doing it alabama for sure wants to join in with them. lets see we clean the lake for them, we manage the lake front of our property for them, we lease power co. land tracts for hunting from them,  we put up sea walls to prevent errosion for them and now we have to pay them to fix or maintain your own pier.  they say we havent had an increase in fees since 2005. why should there be an increase on something l own and pay for to keep up. therenever has been a charge to repair and maintain my pier.  on top of that l think a 60 per cent increase in the other fees is ridiculous. oh by the way did l forget to say we also buy power from them too. just had an increase in that as well.  what a sweet deal you have alabama power. your trying to turn martin into lake lanier.
