I have a response from Jack LaGue (Sandy Beach Rd) to the bit I put on yesterday about protecting the water quality of the pond.  Here it is:

If you're going to publish such drivel on the blog, at least attribute it to an author so there is someone to take responsility for inaccuracies in their writings and own their opinions. 

The author states that the "JPA's mission statement is about protecting the waters".  False.  For one thing, JPA doesn't have a mission statement.  The bylaws state that "The object of the Association shall be to improve the surroundings of the lake, and to promote the general welfare.".... vague at best.... neither the word "protect" nor the word "water" are anywhere to be found.... the author is making stuff up or perhaps wishing for something other than what is.

The reality is that the water quality of Joe's Pond is as good as it has ever been.  Also, the no wake zone is within 200' of shore... not 250' of shore as the author stated.

Whoever wrote that sounds all high and mighty but doesn't have their facts straight at all.... it must be nice to hide behind anoynmity.  If the author isn't willing to stand behind their writings then they shouldn't be published.  If they can't get their facts straight then why should we believe their opinions?
