One good thing is about to come from tonight's meeting which is finishing up as I type. -- It's Ro's last meeting as a CC.
This goes without saying!
...and while I am greatly concerned with the number of units going up around Big Redfish Lake in Blue Mtn Beach, I am not wishing financial harm to come to the developers of said properties.
I know I've been vocal regarding Redfish Village, but I want to make one thing perfectly clear (if anyone thinks otherwise) since I've been focusing on this issue: I do not wish any ill-will on any developer, including Redfish Village. I have no financial interest whatsover in their success or lack thereof. I, of course, can't speak or won't speak for others... especially those that have contracts for one of their units.
Redfish Village tried to "slide" their private beach access past the neighborhood on the first lot (east of 83), less than honorably I might add, and were denied. They have screwed up and they know it. Should the neighborhood on the west side of the 83 access now pay the price?
For everyone's benefit... This is not a situation where Redfish Village does not have convenient beach access for their development. This is a situation where they have promised (in an attempt to make their development more attractive) PRIVATE deeded beach access.
The idea that a PRIVATE deeded beach access adds "value" to their development is offset by the idea that the same PRIVATE deeded beach access in a residential area detracts from the value AND from the right to quiet enjoyment of adjacent private property. I know I'm being repetitive, but it's important...we're talking about 80 2-3BR condo units. That's potentially a lot of people.
I will add, that I think Redfish Village is the least to worry about out of the four huge developments in that small area in regards to it's impact to the local area.
This may be true, unless you own property adjacent to or near the lot in question. I can't affect total development but I can point out and discourage what I see to be inappropriate use of residential property.
If those of you out there think this is just a localized issue, you'll be next, one way or the other if the Walton BCC and Planning allow this very questionable use of this property to occur.
Thanks SJ, for sharing the info here.
