Park Parcel H on SouthShore Plat A - 1991
Silver Willow Pond is surrounded by a 1989 Private Enjoyment Easement Agreement that was recorded on the 1991 SouthShore subdivision plat map. This Agreement provides access and use of the perimeter of either lake only to the 24 or 25 small lake view lot owners and the 29 large lake view owners (54 total).
Silver Willow Lake Enjoyment Easement perimeter intended for ALL Silver Springs Community property owners has been piecemeal absorbed over the years by the contiguous lake front property owners. From 1990 to the present, the Park beach area has been the only access to the Silver Willow Lake usable by ALL Silver Springs Community property owners.
1988, August 8 - American Savings Letter describing Parcels: ” Parcel H: “I have been able to locate three undated versions of the [Silver Springs] Master Plan. The one which the Planning Commission believes to be the original depicts Parcel H as subdivided into single-family lots. Another shows four single-family lots at the west end of the Parcel [Parcel 1] and the east end [Parcel 2} dedicated for use as a park. The third shows the entire Parcel H to be used as the location of a number of recreational facilities. Our decision was to convey the east one-half of the Parcel H to the Homeowners and subdivide the other half.”

The stream on the other side of this berm (Parcel Q) has become “private” by means of the excessive landscaping seen in this picture. This landscaping was placed by the homeowners sited on the other side of this berm who are also the MHOA “manager” and landscape and maintenance crew owners.
2009 - August- By contrast, the other end of the Park has only natural vegetation and much of that has been cut down. Remaining bushes are mostly on the Park Place side of the Parcel B stream.
