Helicopters on Lake Lanier?

No helicopters Lake Lanier I received an email today that I thought was very important and timely. It is worth sharing to all. It concerns helicopters flying to our Beloved Lake Lanier. In my own opinion, it would be an intrusive nuisance to all that live their and want to escape the noise and din of the city and enjoy the natural beauty and solitude.

"On June 15th the Hall County Zoning Board voted to recommend the approval of a helicopter landing in a South Hall residential neighborhood so one family from another county can visit their vacation home on Lake Lanier. I am opposed to the negative impact helicopters' loud noise, and potential danger, have on the peace and serenity of Hall County and all Lake Lanier property.
I think this precedent setting decision can only hurt the real estate values on the lake now and in the future.

On July 9th at 5:00 pm the Hall County Commissioners will meet to make a final
decision. Please email ALL the Commissioners ASAP to voice your concern."

Nice use of the internet to give residents the option to say something.

Jeff Geoghan MBA - Lancaster PA Real Estate Expert (The Jeff Geoghan Realty Group, Coldwell Banker Lancaster PA) When I received the letter...I thought it was very appropriate to post. Active Rain Rocks!

Isn't that the Lake that almost went dry, if so why would anyone want to be there. I can't believe folks use their money to fly to a lake. I must be missing something.

Charles Stallions Real Estate 800-309-3414 Pensacola, Fl. There is water in the Lake all of a sudden..and those wiht the bucks want specail treatment.

Hi Jim...it's simple make Politicians accountable for a balanced budget, if they over spend they are out and must cover the debt...Would that shake things up :O)

The lake was down but not out. Sounds like helicopters are a bad idea for the very reason you give. People come to the mountain lakes to escape to a more peaceful setting. Of course, boats and jet skis can be quite a nuisance too but it's a lake afterall, not a landing field.

Donna Yates, Georgia Realtor North Georgia Homes, Blue Ridge Mountain (Coldwell Banker High Country Realty) I agree. It should be about recreation.
