Contoversial House Ousted!

Kudos to Atlantic Coast Properties for listening to the wishes of Summer Lake residents and making the right decision!

Atlantic Coast's attorney sent a letter today (Nov. 9) to the contractor building the controversial home overlooking the upper reservoir (Lot 130) demanding the house be removed. The decision to deny the continuation of construction, after it was stopped this summer, was made by Atlantic Coast's Architectural Review Board. The ARB heard residents protests in a public hearing last week which was well attended.

The builder of the house said that since last week's meeting he has been making plans for the house's removal. The timetable is undetermined.

Atlantic Coast has the respect and trust of most residents and this incident had the potential to damage the goodwill they have earned over the past four years. It is truly good news that they recognized the errors that had been made on this project and rectified them in accordance with the wishes of Summer Lake residents.

Thank you, Jimmy & Atlantic Coast!
