Default Heron Hole #4 Deplorable Conditions Update

JayDub, Yes you are correct that as of December no standing stagnant water- we are in dry season. Wait until the end of March beginning of April for rainy season.

A more significant issue has now developed as feared. A sink hole (as The Villages calls it "Depression") opened up sometime between Sunday Evening February 20 and Monday February 21(President's Day) approximately 12:20 in the afternoon. Located exactly 24 feet West of the non-functioning drain. Approximately 3 feet in diameter and about 10 inches deep. TV Exec. Golf was notified, came and placed cones and roped off the area. Easy to find.

An employee for an Engineering Company was on sight 3/3/22 at approximately 4:00. He used a 10 foot probing rod and it went all the way in as if it was going thru butter. He is ordering that Ground Penetrating Radar scan of the area be conducted to determine the extent of the issue.

Now there are no more excuses. The situation needs correction! Photos are attached. The sink hole has expanded some since the photos were taken.
