LCRA To Charge Residents Who Use Lake Water |
Volente resident David Gavenda has given us a "heads up" that LCRA is serious about charging lakeside owners who pump water from Lake Travis for domestic (household) use. David will have an article in the upcoming Volente Voice newsletter on this topic. Be sure to see it.
In the meantime, we can direct you to the LCRA website links below for more information. We will also be putting information on www.volente.org.
" Domestic water use from the Highland Lakes: Water from the Highland Lakes is not legally available, even for owners of nearby property, without a water right permit or an LCRA contract. LCRA has a three-year contract available for property owners who want to pump water from one of the lakes for domestic uses. "

Lost Pet: Frankie the Tortoise is Missing |
Frankie the Tortoise, a family pet for more than seven years, has become separated from his owners in the Booth Circle / FM 2769 area.
His owner, Robert Squires, provides this description: "Frankie is about 8" tall and 12" to 13" long. Likes to dig under rocks or hide under brush, or may be seen walking around grazing on grass. Leaves poop that looks like a small hand grenade made out of chewed up grass (about 3 or 4" long)."
If you can help reunite Frankie with his family, please call Bob Steichen at 677-6107 or you can contact Robert Squires at rsquires@firetrol.net or 689-0870. |
