He <br />reiterated the hardcover in this zone is existing hardcover. He <br />stated it has impacted the lake in the past the same as it will in <br />the future. <br />Rowlette stated it is their duty to improve run -off to the lake. <br />She felt they needed more information on the drainage issue. <br />Mr. Cornelius stated there is very little run -off presently, and it <br />will all drain to the marsh area on the property.
