Another interesting story discovered on public records … A lakeside neighborhood COULD lose its lake if someone doesn’t step up and buy it off the unpaid tax auction … and then fix the dam, under state order.
I first reported this in the noon broadcast, advanced it for the later shows and then have followed up as the residents try to find some way to save their property values.
