Any word on how TP&W is going to set up this lake, its the new one being built in Bonham. Are they going to do it like they did Fork, it is slated to open in 2 to 3 years (I believe)....

So Im assuming there will be no waterfront homes and docks on the new lake. Anyone know for sure?

"You have to go back 18 years to find the last lake built in Texas that was over 10,000 acres in size. That was when 20,000-acre Lake O.H. Ivie was impounded on the Colorado River."

Missed that one by a few years.

I am thinking of buying a property in that area. Does anyone know how I can get MSL of a property and to see a list of properties affected by the building of the lake?

PM me please.

Its being built by North Texas municipal water district as a water supply lake for the North Texas suburbs. Probably a a lot of fluctuation in the lake level as demands increase, my guess more like Cooper than Fork. Seems like It has a better water shed than Cooper which should help.

A few years ago I heard that all of the lands around the new lake were already bought. The thought occurred to me was "how do they know where the banks will be before the lake comes up to full pool"?

But then the engineers probably have that figured out already. So did they buy the land for speculation or to keep people out?

I hunted about 1000 acres in the bottoms and where the dam is being built . They still do not have all the land bought.
