Polk County Zoning

We choose to have lake front property in Polk County - what comes along with choice is paying taxes- significant taxes that go to support the schools and needs of individuals that live in Polk County- that is great. I typically do not see that coming back to support the lake?
We also use the lake we have property on- my kids swim in it, we eat fish that come from it and enjoy it- who do think has the best interest of the lake in-mind- the residents of the lake!
We want to improve property - we are proud of it and want friends and family to come enjoy it - requires sleeping room, deck space, etc. in return these people come spend more money in Polk County at restaurants, stores, etc.
The gov't has a choice -support those who choose to help make Polk County succeed or leave us with a choice to spend and invest our money else where-
