I saw a post a while back of people who paid premiums on "waterfront" lots complaining about the weeds and unkept grass growth in the water depleted ponds. Very upset waterfront lol owners.

Curious but how are the ponds doing from say St Catherine and Fenney areas towards 44?

I ask because I get that surface water and water management in general enables T V to build and fill ponds but I find it interesting, having just taken a jolly-ride through the new "center of T V", that the new sales areas by Eastport have full water levels in them, no beaches lol and other areas of T V are down what looks like about 5 - 6 ft.

I believe I have heard that T V moves water around. Just wondering if they need to move water back toward houses that they already sold or does the rain mysteriously fill sale areas first, wink wink?
The areas North of 44 and South of 44 are on two completely different pumping systems.

They cannot move water "from the south" up "to the north"...
