Spring Lake Improvement District (SLID) was set up by the state in 1971 in order to monitor and control water drainage of a 3,400-acre WCI development on the north side of Lake Istokpoga that had mostly fallen into disrepair when the air base was shut down. The directors were and are elected by the people of the district. Up until 2005, when the hurricanes hit, there was no real reason to think the drainage was inadequate.

Is the property clear and free of liens? ...more

Having owned property in Spring Lake since 1988 I have seen numerous changes to the golf course and housing development. What it has now is, how many holes to maintain? Bankrupt housing, course sold, not sold, Joe DeCerbo and others as buyers for the course at one time; flooding, pump station problems etc. Unless the good people of Spring Lake want additional assessments like Sun 'n Lake's development, now is the time to speak up. ...more
