I'm sure APCO has this number but does anyone know the number of waterfront homes on Lake Martin? It would be interesting to also know how many are full time vs vacation homes.

The HOBOs lakefront homes list shows 7,840 homes, condos, and individually owned lots. Subtract about 100 non-lakefront homes in Stillwaters and the net result will be around 7,700. Tallapoosa County has about 6,000, Elmore 1,100 est., and Coosa 500-600. About 35% of the homes receive their tax bill at their lake address--a good sign that they probably live on the lake full time. Tallapoosa County receives 45-50% of all its property tax revenue from lake front homes. Elmore County, about 1/6 of revenue for entire county comes from lakefront homes. Just a few stats.

Ric, the HOBOs have some very dedicated volunteers committed to our lake. When we formed in 2007, no one had a database of every lakeside home mailing address, so a very dedicated lady used tax maps and manually developed the data base. There are some wonderfully talented people here; we just need more to volunteer their services to preserve the lake.
