These lakes, all over the county, are eventually a lose/ lose proposition. Lake management districts are not going to prove to be the final solution to the nutrients in the water. It should be apparent that the issue is the aging septic systems surrounding the lakes. They have been draining nutrients into the water for decades with no requirement that the systems be maintained nor that they be replaced when needed. The permanent fix is, of course, financially untenable for most owners of homes around the lakes. Sewers and sewage treatment systems will eventually be required or the lakes and the entire area around the lakes will cease to be assets and will instead be just open cesspools. Not pretty but then the truth rarely is.
