My family had to give up private land for Lake Rayburn in Texas. Happens more and more as our population increases. I don’t mind public land being used to build a fence. Maybe then some of us can hold onto our private land
As the Texas population grows, there will be a need for more water supply/lakes, which requires more land.
In the last session, the legislature authorized the study of 15 new lake locations.
I'm still looking for someone to crunch the numbers on how many acres will be required for TTC versus acres required for lakes.
