Re: Clinton Lake Speed Limit ?
I'm back had computer trouble and just got it hooked back up.
This guy lost his dad and that sucks but you can tell that he is not a boater, he would like to see a no wake zone at night, not realistic. That means if someone is killed on the road at night we should all drive a idle on the highway, and that is not even smart. A speed limit at night like LOTO has is fine 30 MPH at night would work for most people, even me
A speed limit during the day would make it a lot more difficult to draw people to our lake to visit. That means the perch jerkers, the powerboaters and I hate to say it but even the jet ski's. Springfield Il has a 30 MPH all the time and I have never been there and I dont believe they have alot of powerboatrs over there. This would hurt the local biz a lot just think about how much fuel we burn going fast as compared to running slow. I also think that if this was to happen it would run alot of us out of the area. I am planning on going to LOTO within the next three years yes, but there are alot of people who want to stay at Clinton and I dont believe they would if this was the case. I see that there is anouther meeting in Oct so I will try to find out when it is and let you know, hopefully I can get a couple of you there to go with myself, and let them know how we feel.
