Here is an advisory for lakefront owners: SLR_SWFMDViolation.pdf (301.8 KB). This came memo out about a month ago so it should be due for an update, per the memo. I wish that Management would date and sign this kind of information; it's such a simple and common sense administrative element. Sign and date!
As an aside, there are far more reliable resources to link to than Wikipedia. Wikipedia is created by users and is not a validated source, though may be created by referencing valid sources. It is information reproduced from other resources. Though Wiki can be a valuable introductory "quick and dirty" resource, Wiki can be like the child game of "whisper a secret to your neighbor" to see how the secret changes in the repeat process.
I have been browsing around to find more information about this subject. So far, it looks REALLY complicated as to the various ownership, use and regulatory rights of the public versus the private interest. On superficial reading, the trend in case law is to construe to the benefit of the public. It looks like, absent a clear determination by the public interest side (state, feds) that S-bag lakefront owners will have an uphill climb to get sovereignty over the lake.
I wonder what significance a Sm all stretch of sand in front the beach house that hardly anyone ever uses makes in the long run. And, this sandy beach was never conveyed as a common property by the Developer; thus it was an added material alteration but was never voted on as a continuing assessment burden. SLohA has no covenant to protect its existence. Maybe it is time to let this kind of member-generated "amenity" go, along with some other outmoded amenities and facilities in S-bag.
I did find that S-bag Lake was originally platted in the Polk County record as Lake Orin in 1931 and it is 237 acres. Florida did change from "common law" to "civil law" insofar as interpreting the rights of riparian ownership and public access and lake use.
