Anchoring in our lakes

The HLCA and District 1 Commissioner Shuham continue to grapple with the problem of permanent anchoring or "squatters" in both North and South Lakes. A recent audit showed 41 in North Lakes and 11 in South Lake. Some of the vessels are abandon and one is half sunk. A couple are being rented out as Airbnbs.
