Remember how the Lake Conroe Association fought 2-foot seasonal

BobRehak :
Thanks Bob. First and foremost both Lakes Conroe and Lake Houston were built as water retention reservoirs for COH. Home buyers should be advised by realtors that they are at risk of having docks sit several feet above the water level when weather threatens and the water is lowered, I understand their distress after paying high dollar property taxes for lake front property and have their boats stranded. I think the resolution is for COH to build pipelines to direct floodwaters to the gulf.

It's both mind boggling and extremely frustrating at the same time. Unbelievable.

BobRehak : Thanks for your endless work!

BobRehak :
Not surprised. The lake was lowered and the big rain didn't come to fill it back up. Better the complaints be about the water level lowering than flooded homes. Hopefully we will get another good rain soon.

BobRehak :
Bless his heart! Poor Mr Lacey being left out of discussions which he does not have any control or apparently any expertise. Bob, you are a treasure to follow all these topics closely and keep us informed.

Thanks for keeping up with the shenanigans up river. It's hard to believe Lacey's arrogance

BobRehak :
He definitely has a different perspective than the people who flooded. People rarely put themselves in the others shoes.

BobRehak thank you.

BobRehak - You say all water released from Lake Conroe is accounted for from the City of Houston's 2/3 share. So SJRA's 1/3 share and any requests for lowering have no bearing on releases from Conroe? The protocols for Lake Houston cite progress on dam improvements as a consideration by stake holders. Progress on increasing flow rate from the four gates is zero. It is a 1950s dam. What stakeholders in Lake Conroe consider the sad state of affairs that seven years after Harvey, nothing to improve the LH dam has been done? For that matter, what stakeholders with the CoH have considered that? It's the elephant in the room.

BobRehak :
Wow, they really went off the deep end...( pun intended!). They DO sound like a HOA.

If anyone is sufficiently outraged, feel free to join me in sending Kevin Lacey a carefully worded email (his email address is publicly available) at K.Lacy@lcatx.com.

But real leaders to need to be able to look beyond agreements, avoid being stereotypical bureaucrats, and just do the right thing for people. Since Kevin takes issue with a breach of the agreement, perhaps we need to push for a modification to that agreement that enables lowering for unique weather events that threaten downstream lives and livelihoods.

Spork @lcatx :
The agreement already allows for year round lowering.

BobRehak :
Thanks Bob. Do you have a copy of the agreement on your website?
