Stopped by yesterday and have seen that the property is scheduled for re-zoning from AG to whole bunch of the specific types: single conmmercial, residential, ...etc. Re-zonings are normally happen when somebody bought or having a strong interest of buying the land. Are we expecting new diveshop, hotel and a divesite soon? Right one street block down from the "the Hymalaias of cavediving".
Joe and Marys sinks aren't the best sinks, but with some concise planning I am sure that with enough commercial effort they could cause issues with Diepolder soon enough... :roll:
Lost Forty is directly behind them as well.
I'm thinking they will get grouted and filled and built around.
Hernando County has a wellfield that runs along the powerline, so there are wellfield protection issues that should protect the sinks from total destruction.
The area has been posted and the gates re-erected. It's pretty much off limits now. I didn't try the back way into Lost 40 though.
Another couple of dive sites gone.

Instead of T shirts with mermaids on it, joe and marys t shirt will be solid silt brown, with the caption "Our Mudmaids Are Waiting for YOU"
Other than those minor differences, it will be just the same.
