We had a great Easter meeting with so much awesome food that all of us Adults enjoyed and a great Easter Egg Hunt that the children had so much fun with.
All, of the extra little things that so many of our Ladies Holiday and Fundraising Committee was great and we thank all of them for their participation. We also thank Miss Cassidy and her Dad for the facilities, it was all great.
At our last board meeting we discussed having a raffle for our 75th anniversary. I’m looking into a 22 Magnum rifle with a logo on the side and our 75th also. We will discuss it at our next meeting. If you have an input please let us know.
We have a State Convention at the end of May and our picnic in June.
At the present time we, have 60 members. Lester Burch <ncfwwa@gmail.com>
Suwannee River Water Management District Update
Suwannee River Water Management District Update April 2024 UNPERMITTED WELLS The District is cracking down on wells that have been installed without permits. These wells are fairly easy to find, simply comparing new home locations with new permitted well locations, reveals which homes were built without the proper permitting. We have begun the process of notifying these homeowners of their unpermitted wells, and as it turns out they are not too happy learning that either their homebuilder or well contractor did not pull the construction permit. This action should be prompting County building departments to hold off on issuing Certificate of Occupancies without the proper well construction permit. In the future, please be vigilant in ensuring your construction permit is issued before you start your construction jobs.
