Please Read on Septic Tanks

Hi Everybody, this is very important, please read, thank you, Dave

Dear Neighbors,

As I promised, I am sending to you the list of legislative contacts. In addition, you will find a map of the entire Wekiva Study Area impacted by the Department of Health proposed rule to force replacements of passive systems such as we have with “performance-based systems.” I have also included a copy of the flyer that was delivered to your home about two weeks ago. Feel free to reproduce it and pass it to others you may know outside the Bent Oak subdivision that may be impacted by this DOH action.

We only have about two to three weeks to stop this rule before it crashes down on us, so please use this information to quickly send off your letters, make your phone calls, etc. Be aware, that most of the e-mails sent to Gov. Crist are being forwarded to the Department of Health for a response (very insulting!). However, send them anyhow! Numbers matter. Call if you can. Make sure you contact all the legislators listed and the Surgeon General.

If you have friends in other subdivisions, please contact them and ask for the name of the President of their associations so we can contact them and increase our representation and influence. Pass along any contact information to me and I will make sure they get plugged in.

We will be working with the Orlando Area Realtors Association, the Markham Woods Homeowners Assoc., Coalition for Property Rights, and several other civic, homeowner, and professional assoc. opposed to this rule. On Tuesday, I will be attending the Orange County Commission Meeting (1:30 p.m. County Commission Chambers, Orange Ave.) and providing testimonial input about the serious economic and quality of life ramifications of this rule to the Bent Oak homeowners. You are welcome to attend. Fred Brummer is proposing the Orange County Government send a letter of concern and protest to the Gov. The citizen input is to move them to do so. If you need more information on this, let me know.

One of our neighbor’s has described this rule’s impact as an “economic black hole.” And, that it is.

I have much more information that has been forwarded to me. I am going to try to get a summary statement together and will get it to you asap.
Thank you all for your involvement! Remember, if there are two or more voters in your home, get e-mails out from each one. Every voice counts and the more the better!
