Dave Wickersham, Board Memeber
This
past boating season we have had a few more concerns regarding beach
club overcrowding with boats, boat owners "claiming" beach
parking spots as their own, and boats parked in designated swim areas.
With more offshore lots being sold and used, more boats are on the
lake and seeking parking at their beach clubs. As the beach
frontage is obviously limited, these problems will only increase with
time.
A Beach Club Committee to assist in handling
these and other issues among subdivision members has been
proposed. Our goal is to include one member from each Lake
Camelot beach club. Dave Wickersham, LCPOA Board Member and
Appleby beach club member would chair the committee.
"Meetings" would be via email or phone to maximize
participation, but occasionally on-site visits may be needed.
Several property owners have already volunteered to be on the
committee and additional volunteers are being sought. We
anticipate this committee being involved with development of a
5-year plan to deal with the many issues that will arise regarding
beach clubs and to anticipate the changes necessary to preserve the
lake.
Regarding watercraft being left at beach clubs after
the mandatory October 15, 2006 removal date: These will be
removed and stored at the LCPOA clubhouse, with fines accruing until
they are claimed. In past years, those craft left unclaimed were
disabled and taken to the Rome transfer site for disposal. Our
recent legal consultation states that LCPOA may sell those craft that
are abandoned. We are looking at procedures to do this, with an
auction at the annual meeting in June or the Frolic in August as
initial suggestions. Posting pictures on the LCPOA website and a
possible online auction has also been proposed. This would be
one policy the beach club committee would help develop.
If
you are interested in being a member of the Beach Club Committee,
contact the LCPOA office by email, phone or snail mail. Provide
your name, home address, Lake Camelot address, beach club affiliation,
home phone and email address.
