Month: March 2025

FOBC received a headsup a few days ago about a large “slide” on the downstream face of Lake Petit Dam (down by the ballfield).  It is in the area that the large “gravel patch” was.  First a little history, then some analysis & commentary.

“There is still a very real “Non-Zero” chance that this LLO Project during March and April 2025 ends in catastrophic failure of Lake Petit Dam….”

After years of extravagant spending on Golf Courses and Luxury Clubhouse upgrades.. the Big Canoe POA has no money left to meet it’s legal and regulatory requirements to fix Lake Petit Dam. Big Canoe POA is looking to the Public Taxpayer to bail them out now. Maybe we need D.O.G.E. in Big Canoe to find out where all the money went!

FOBC hasn’t done a Petit Dam Update in quite a while.  I just got back my most recent Open Records Request, and I just couldn’t ignore what I am sitting on.
