Survey finds Bay Oaks Harbor water and sewer issues
Homeowners funded a $50,000 Langford Engineering survey of Bay Oaks Harbor utilities serving 70 acres along Tabbs Bay. Results show drinking water and fire flow not meeting state standards, many meters outdated, five leaks in the RV Park area, 23 severely rated manholes, and 42 sewer leaks. A plan includes extending a 12 inch water line by eight inches at a cost of $105,140 in the 2001 bond program, with homeowners covering only the connection.
