Residents near Lake Travis raise concerns over park closures, restrictions

The average LCRA executive compensation is $227,802 a year.- google

I live 10 miin from the lake but no longer have access to anywhere to go jump in for an hour on the way home from work, or a hot afternoon. When LCRA went private after all the public donation over the years they forced everyone to pay and have use public resources to protect their interest. THEY RUINED ALL PUBLIC ACCESS for anyone who wants to go for an hour without having to pay 15 or 20 bucks.

PUBLIC TAXES SHOULD NOT GO TO PRIVATE BUSINESSES FOR PARKS> HAVING TO USE A CREDIT CARD TO ADVANCE PLAN YOUR WEEKEND for an hour at the park is DISGUSTING use of public funds.

Authority is the problem. People have too much of it.

In the government's' opinion we should all be slaving away to pay for their excesses and not waste time on recreation. Therefore there is no need to provide readily accessible facilities to the peasants.

The people need to come together and just reopen it. We pay enough taxes and the execs and LCRA have enough money as well to maintain it. Something else is going on. Like how our farmland is being bought buy the Chinese government. Should be illegal and Texas should enact a law and take the land back.

Wow! Kvue covered an actual story ( almost) no research necessary (LOL)

Not sure what the point of this story is letting the public know what is going on ? I guess 🤷🏾‍♀️

You own nothing and are happy!
