Description
I wrote on 8/2/21 and it was logged as SR526953 and again on 8/30/21 and it was logged as SR528437 re: same issue. It has been 2 months since the first SR. The pond on the south side of Oakview in Tamaron across from the large pond is now beyond any homeowners ability to resolve. Large tree growth is overtaking the end closest to Oakview, growing over the large drain pipes, and grass islands are growing together.
This is a county pond and you can just say you are not taking care of it anymore. How does that work? People pay taxes and I would think there is enough money to allocate toward maintenance of this pond. The monies going into all these other projects like roundabouts, diverging diamonds, Legacy Trail, etc. is no problem, but getting a county pond under control is not possible. I reported this quite awhile ago before it became out of control and now it involves a lot of work. Please take a look at this. Thank you, Ellen

Kevin,
These are stormwater ponds and they are County property.
