After reading this thread, hearing about the situation affecting the Pleasure Point neighborhood, knowing that many PP mobile homes are on independent septic systems without issues, seeing the Outlook’s newspaper article, sensing the heart ache of the PP residents and reading the letter from the “lady” at PP Park---many additional thoughts come to mind.  if the consortium (Heath Department, APCo, PP master leaseholder and maybe RL) has this much power to quickly end the lives of good law abiding middle class Americans living in PP---why would anyone ever trust APCo to rent/lease one of the many other leased properties around the Lake? What’s next…could someone always complete a better undisclosed deal with APCo power brokers and have any leased lot revoked? Why would any retiree come to Tallapoosa County after seeing how it allows the mega giant Corporations/local government agencies to treat its residents, especially the ones that are retired and afforded to live in a mobile home?? Even if the course continues to end PP without any prescribed recourses---shouldn’t APCo assist these residents in moving, offering another lease option around the Lake or in the helping cover some portion of the loss in their investments? After all---i think we all see how PP residents got here---APCo either intentionally/or unintentionally created a false sense of status quo since the MHP had existed for nearly 50 years, APCo---a “fair and trusted company” owns the land leased to PP Park and Marina,  APCo representatives many times over permitted these PP residents to make investments in permanent structures over/around the water and to build permanent improvements attached to/around their MHs on the sub-leased lots and since APCo has continuously operated as a land leasing company for many additional residents around the Lake. Given these apparent facts, i truly see how owner residents at PP possessed a strong sense of security in their investments and felt if they paid their lease amounts, the future was secure.  APCo should be ashamed of this treatment created direct/indirect by their hands and should give serious consideration to protecting their reputation by establishing how they can help these park residents out of a bad situation they either directly or indirectly played a major part in creating. if indeed septic systems are problematic within specific locations around the Park, the Health Department and APCo should have already forced improvements in PP and anywhere else that issues exist and we should be reading about how options are being explored to correct the situation for good of all neighbors.

in regards to some defending APCo and the other larger entities with huge legal teams steering toward their own end goals using the convenience of the Health department as their defense, the people i know in PP are honest law abiding retirees living in a mobile home. They would never knowingly break laws or let others break the law despite what these Corporate/Government/Private for Profit entities with their vast legal teams might say.  Many updates in this forum might lead you to believe that all people in PP are bad and willingly have set out to destroy our community and the Lake.  i like you, have never read PP as being a crime-ridden neighborhood, neither have i read any crimes coming from that area. Other than these unsubstantiated septic issues rumored to exist across the entire PP neighborhood, please respond back if you have facts supporting different information.  As for septic systems, i know that many are on independent single tank systems being pumped every so many years like all of us should be doing.  Rules call for septic systems to be pumped every 3 to 5 years, maybe more/less depending on family size and usage demands.  Hoping that all of us around the Lake are doing this prescribed action.

Further, everyone that has now read the FeRC report filed in 2011 knows that a greater end goal is in play here and with our current day reading realizes it must have been goal of APCo to eliminate PP even though residents were in the dark. Maybe PP residents were not reading every piece of output from APCo like most of us. i guess i am most bothered that APCo continued to allow residents to make permitted improvements/investments like had been the case for nearly 50 years, obviously APCo had visited PP as landowner many times as indicated by recent permitting/other inspections and as we now read, obviously had a future master plan for the property. even more bothersome is the apparent intentional silence that has happened while APCo’s own permitting department allowed additional investments to be made by residents with PP.  i think these facts will have an interesting outcome if ever viewed by a group of neutral unbiased peers.

 So while easy to say good riddance to the PP residents and to see these neighbors charged with unexpected substantial costs to move their homes to an unknown destination and to incur huge losses of investment dollars while maybe being on set incomes---i see this as our neighbors being done wrong.  The Lady and some residents maybe are guilty on septic systems without my knowledge as is the same case with some deeded landowners at Lake and elsewhere. That said, the PP residents known to me are not guilty of anything but, blind trust. Something stinks here and its smells of something far bigger than a sewage smell that should be correctable.
