DEFENDANTS' POST TRIAL BRIEF
COME NOW, William B. Brown, Ron Mayhew and Connie Mayhew, Defendants herein and
provide the court the following post-trial brief:
1.
This case was called to trial on April 29, 2013 over the objections of the Defendants due to
incomplete discovery production by the Plaintiffs and unfinished business before the court in the form
of outstanding motions. With so much outstanding business, Defendants continue to maintain that trial
was premature and the Defendants were unable to be prepared for trial although witnesses had been
previously subpoenaed and were available had a trial been appropriate at that time.
2.
Even with the Defendants' case hamstrung, the following issues of fact came out before the
court and require that the Plaintiff's judgment from Magistrate Court be stricken and dismissed, that
Defendants' counter-claims be granted and that appropriate actions in defense of the public health and
safety be initiated.
3.
Produced for the record at trial were certain Plaintiff's Exhibits and Defendants' Exhibit 1 which
show that the Common Area property on which the Ivyshaw Landing Subdivision Community Septic
System drain field and tanks have been placed was stolen from the entire sub-division complex. The
Page 1

septic system facilities could not be placed upon property belonging to someone other than the
“owners” for which it was being proposed:
Exhibit 1, the State of Georgia Manual for Onsite Sewage Management Systems, page A18, 290-5-
26-.18 Maintenance and Operation, sub-paragraph (2) states:
(2) “Maintenance” - The property owner shall be responsible for properly operating and
maintaining the on-site sewage management system to increase the life expectancy and
prevent failure. Maintenance of the system shall be in accordance with the criteria
established in the Department’s current Manual for On-Site Sewage Management Systems.
Where an on-site sewage management system is proposed to serve facilities under separate
ownership, a contract to insure proper operation and maintenance of the system signed by all
owners, shall exist as a precondition to the issuance of a permit for the construction of an onsite
sewage management system.
Therefore, the developers illicitly quit claimed the Common Area properties which were required (and
represented) to comply with the May 22, 2000 copy of the Forsyth County Uniform Development Code
(the “UDC”) section 18-5.23, Exhibit 2:
Stealing of the Common Areas required by the UDC has invalidated the entire subdivision, placing all
of the homes and lots in the entire complex (Ivyshaw Park, Ivyshaw Landing and Preserves at Ivyshaw)
into a condition of non-conformance with state and county law.

4.
The Plaintiff (and their counsel) come before the Court asking for judgment for attorney fees.
They appeared also in Magistrate Court asking for the same fees. Plaintiff's attorney testified before
the court:
Q: You can't obtain a judgment on attorney fees, except those actually incurred, correct?
A: Correct.
Both Plaintiff and Plaintiff's counsel know that judgment on attorney fees cannot issue except for those
fees “actually incurred”. Therefore, in conspiracy together, they have submitted to the Magistrate
Court and to this Superior Court through discovery materials a falsified statement of expense in order
to obtain that judgment in Magistrate Court and in support of such judgment herein.
5.
Plaintiffs have wrongfully sought and obtained through submission of falsified expense
statements a judgment for attorney fees which can only be obtained for fees “actually incurred”, i.e.
actually paid. Plaintiff's law firm, Weissman, Nowack, Curry & Wilco have even written a treatise
posted on the internet regarding the collection of attorney fees, Exhibit 3:
The reason for that is that attorneys get blinded by the desire to collect their fees in a contingency
situation and they do not perform their statutory obligation of looking out for the interests of the
homeowners! As has transpired in this very case.
6.
Even though, hamstrung by a premature trial and without the benefit of requested discovery,
Defendants have shown at trial that the ILNPOA has misappropriated homeowner funds and cared
Page 3

nothing about understanding the infrastructure for which they have an obligation to operate and
maintain on behalf of all of the homeowners in the subdivision. By direct testimony of Mr. Bruce
Weintraub, ILNPOA funds were used in misappropriation of the association funds to cut of grass
belonging to the developers. This is just one showing of misappropriation which underscores the
importance of the discovery requests for the books and records of the association which have been
wrongfully denied to Defendants and for which judgment in favor of the Plaintiff should be denied.
7.
Attached hereto is the affidavit of Mr. Zach Handach, P.E. with Rindt-McDuff Associates, the
engineer who conducted the review of the subdivision septic systems. Mr. Handach was under
subpoena to appear at trial, which was conducted prematurely. Mr. Handach's reports contain the
engineering review of the Community Septic System, the storm drains and green space requirements.
A statement of the expenses incurred for his services is included. His reviews show the multitude of
design and installation deficiencies which were allowed to be done by Forsyth County since the
subdivision was never conforming to county law in the first place. The additional work of the surveyor
which RMA relied upon for their storm drain evaluation is attached as Exhibit 4.
8.
Attached hereto is an affidavit of Mr. Dan Centofanti, P.G., with Mill Creek Environmental
Services. Mr. Centofanti has been subpoenaed to the trial of these matters, which was premature as of
the date of the trial on March 29, 2013. Mr. Centofanti's reports the failing and improperly designed
and installed septic systems in the subdivision, along with the expenses incurred for his services. Mr.
Centofanti's report references bacteria sampling conducted by KW Soils Inc. which were made a part of
the record during the Plaintiff's deposition of Kyle White of KW Soils, Inc. along with the expenses of
Defendant in obtaining his services (attached as Exhibit 5).
9.
Mr. Centofanti's review of the Ivyshaw Landing Subdivision points out that Septic systems are
Page 4

failing and contaminating the stream and lake with fecal coliform bacteria at a level posing a
“significant risk to anyone coming in contact with Lake Lanier waters”..
10.
Plaintiff's Exhibit 3,(Declaration of Covenants and Amendments), Plaintiff's Exhibit 20 (Plat for
Ivyshaw Landing recorded 7/25/01, Book 66, Page 168), Plaintiff's Exhibit 21 (Septic records from
Forsyth County), 38 (Purchase Contract dated 7/11/03), and Plaintiff's Exhibit 43 (Plat of Neighboring
subdivision) and Defendants' Exhibit 1 (Plat of Ivyshaw Park Phase I dated November 15, 2000, Book
68, Page 184) are the documents relating to the approval of Ivyshaw Park and Ivyshaw Landing
subdivisions. The Forsyth County approved plats of the Ivyshaw Park and Ivyshaw Landing
Subdivisions do not contain any representation of a limitation on the number of bedrooms that can be
built on any lot within the Ivyshaw Landing Subdivision which is served by a Community Septic
System limited in the number of bedrooms which can connect to it.
11.
As shown in trial, Plaintiff's Exhibit 5 (Quitclaim Deed dated October 31, 2001, common
property) transfers the tracts known as Common Area 1 and Common Area 2 from Ivey Shaw, LLC to
Ivyshaw Landing Neighborhood Property Owners Association, Inc (herein “ILNPOA”). The property
subject of this quit claim deed had vested to the property owners of the Ivyshaw Park Subdivision as
shown in Plaintiff's 43 and Defendants' 1. As shown in Defendant's Exhibit 1, at Final Plat Note 12, the
Common Area tracts subject of the Plaintiff's Exhibit 5 quit claim deed were required to meet the
county code for Common Area for the entire subdivision:
The illicit transfer of the property into the ILNPOA for commercial use as a septic system drain field
area has caused the entire subdivision (Ivyshaw Park, Ivyshaw Landing and the Preserves at Ivyshaw)
Page 5

to be out of compliance with the county code. This quit claim deed is evidence of a theft of property
for the fraudulent enrichment of the subdivision developers as well as certain of the subdivision
homeowners/Property Owners Association officers who have facilitated the cover up of this activity as
evidenced in this court action.
12.
Exhibit 6 is an excerpt of the Manual for Onsite Sewage Management Systems, Georgia
Department of Human Resources, page M-1, showing the minimum lot size required for installation of
an individual septic system. Table MT-1 shows that for a lot utilizing a public water supply (such as
the lots in Ivyshaw Landing) the minimum required lot size by state law is 21,780 square feet. Forsyth
County had adopted these rules in their May 22, 2000 version of the Forsyth Uniform Development
Code (UDC), Exhibit 7. The UDC is more restrictive than the state requirement, showing a minimum
lot size required of 25,500 square feet in an R2R zoned district (such as Ivyshaw Landing). Plaintiff's
Exhibit 20 (Plat for Ivyshaw Landing recorded 7/25/01, Book 66, Pages 168-170) shows that Lot 3
only has a lot size of 20,608 square feet which does not meet the minimum standard for either the state
or county code. Yet, Ed Kerns, first president of the Plaintiff and owner of Lot 3 was issued an
individual septic system permit in violation of state and county law. Further examination of Lots 17
and 18 (which are now leaching septic effluent into federal waters) will show that, although the lot
sizes on the surface appear to exceed the minimum required, the soils shown in Plaintiff's Exhibit 20,
along with unusable portions of the lots, do not provide the required minimum square footage of
useable soils and they were also issued individual septic permits in violation of state and county law.
These people were directly responsible for accepting the subdivision in its sub-standard condition in
exchange for these fraudulent favors for their own personal benefit.
13.
Forsyth County approved and had filed with the Clerk of Court two different versions of the
Ivyshaw Park subdivision plats, Plaintiff's Exhibit 43 and Defendant's Exhibit 1. Although these plats
Page 6

were filed one year apart, both represent that they are original versions with no revisions. Both
represent that they were reviewed, signed off and approved within just a few days of being submitted.
Together, they make conflicting representations as to the use of the Common Area, so that the
developers and the County could show to various government entities whatever picture they wanted to
present at in any given circumstance.
14.
Plaintiffs Exhibit 43 and Defendants' Exhibit 1 both show that the entire Ivyshaw Landing
subdivision (18 Lots) has responsibility for operation and maintenance of the installed Community
Septic System. However, in contravention of the intent of the County Commissioners, the Ivyshaw
Landing Covenants have been unilaterally modified by the subdivision developers to fraudulently
remove from responsibility of maintenance those lot owners who have individual septic systems
installed.
15.
Defendants' have incurred expenses on behalf of all of the homeowners in the subdivision
which the Plaintiffs have refused to acknowledge because of their stated desire to ignore the problems
of the subdivision, for their own personal benefit. Those expenses include:
A. Rindt-McDuff Associates, engineering:
7/6/2007 $2,500.00
10/16/2007 $210.53
3/10/2010 $5,552.74
5/14/2012 $780.00
Total: $9,043.27
B. Mill Creek Environmental Services:
11/9/2012 $1,176.00
C. Total Surveying, in support of RMA investigation:
Page 7

4/27/2007 $850.00
D. KW Soils, Level 4 Soil Survey and Water Sampling:
Level 4 Soil Survey of Common Area: $1,300.00
Water Sampling: $1,000.00
Total of Expenses in support of subdivision interests: $13,369.27
16.
Ivyshaw Landing Subdivision is not in compliance with county code. The subject residence,
9140 Ivyshaw Landing, sits on stolen government property and discharges septic waste onto property
stolen from the homeowners of the Ivyshaw Park Subdivision. The Plaintiffs, ILNPOA, accepted this
fraudulent condition from the developers in exchange for illegal septic systems on their own personal
homes.
17.
Due to the non-compliance of the subdivision with county code, the following corrective
actions must be imposed as stated by the reports from RMA and Mill Creek:
1. A moratorium on all sales and transfers of property until compliance with codes can be
achieved in order to keep from passing fraud to any other innocent victims (home buyers,
lenders, investors, and ultimately the pubic who will be saddled for cleaning up this mess
through their tax dollars).
2. Return of the Common Areas to the rightful owners.
3. Removal and remediation of Common Area property contaminated with septic effluent from the
illicit installation.
4. Immediate corrective action for those septic systems discharging septic effluent into the
environment.
5. Cleanup and remediation of public lands affected by the sewage contamination and sediment
contamination from excessive erosion.
Page 8

6. Restoration and remediation of government property stolen and improperly filled and cleared on
Lake Lanier.
7. Voiding of Ivyshaw Landing and Ivyshaw Park Subdivision plats and approvals until all
corrective actions and remedial actions are complete.
18.
Further, due to the direct showing of misappropriation of funds by Plaintiff, their claims should
be denied and investigation requested by Internal Revenue Service.
19.
Defendants were owners of 9140 Ivyshaw Landing at the time of filing of this action, therefore,
due to the actions of the Plaintiffs in accepting the subdivision from the developer without proper due
diligence and callously disregarding the obvious violations as reported by Defendants experts,
Defendants' home was not marketable and Defendants seek judgment against Plaintiffs for the value of
that property, which according to appraisal is in the amount of $1,800,000.00.
20.
Defendants further seek judgment against Plaintiffs in the amount of expenditures made by
Defendants on behalf of all of the homeowners of the subdivision in exposing this “fraud for profit”
racket. As show above, that amount is $13,369.27.
21.
As a matter of law, Defendants show that Plaintiff's request for attorney fees should be denied.
22.
The reason for Plaintiff's refusal to turn over the books and records with regard to attorney fees
began to be exposed in front of the court during trial and have lately been further jelled since the public
posting of the trial video on you-tube. Present in the courtroom audience during trial was a certain
lawyer employed by the Gwinnett County Solicitor, Mr. Tad Franklin Kelley, the son-in-law of Bruce
and Kathy Weintraub. Mr. Kelley assisted Plaintiff's counsel, Mr. LoMonaco at times during the trial.

Lot Sizing
To provide for the orderly and safe development of property utilizing on­site sewage management systems, the
following criteria for establishing minimum lot sizes are recommended for use by County Boards of Health, which
are authorized by Georgia statute in OCGA 31­3­5(b) (2) to establish minimum lot sizes. Larger lot sizes may be
required to meet the requirements of this manual depending on the proposed development of the property. County
Boards of Health and/or County Zoning Authorities may requirelargerminimum lotsizes;suchestablishmentof
larger minimum lot sizes will take precedence.
1. Lot size requirements are as follows for single family dwellings including but not limited to: manufactured or
mobile homes, stick built homes, modular homes, etc., and individual lots in subdivisions or mobile home lots
located in areas other than commercial mobile home parks. Area requirements for multiple dwellings on a
single recorded lot, where not prohibited by local zoning, must be provided in multiples of the following
minimum lot sizes for each dwelling to be constructed on the recorded lot. SeeTable MT­1 and subparagraphs
1A through 1F as follows.
Table MT­1
Minimum (Min) Lot Sizes, Minimum Lot Widths and Maximum (Max) Allowable Sewage Flow for the Type of
Water Supply System.
Type of Water Supply System
Non­public*
(Individual)
Public
Min Lot Size 43,560 square feet 21,780 square feet
Min Lot Width 150 ft. 100 ft.
Max Sewage Flow 600 gpad** 1200 gpad
* In this context "Non­public" means an individual water supply system or any other water
supplysystem,whichisnota"public”watersupplysystem.
**gpad = gallons per acre per day=gal/acre/day.
A. The above minimum lot sizes are for the typical size home (3 or 4 Bedroom) with basic appurtenances such as:
driveway, minimum number of trees, and water supply line. If larger homes, swimming pools, tennis courts or
outbuildings, etc. are proposed to be constructed or if trees would interfere with installation of an on­site sewage
management system, the County Board of Health will require larger lots to assure useable soil area.
B. The County Board of Health may also require larger lot sizes when physical factors indicate the need to do so.
These factors include, but are not limited to, the availability of sufficient unobstructed land areas for an
approved on­site sewage management system and approved replacement system, slope greater than 5%,
percolation rates higher than 45 minutes per inch, need for subsurface drainage or adverse topographic features.
C. Lots shall be a minimum width of one hundred feet (100') or one hundred fifty feet (150') measured within the
area where an approved on­site sewage management system and replacement system are to be located when
served by a public water supply system or non­public water supply system, respectively.
D. The following land areas are not considered as a part of a lot when calculating the required minimum lot size:
right of ways of roads, easements (such as power line or pipe line) that exclude installation of an on­site sewage
management system, soil conditions that exclude the installation of an on­site sewage management system,
bodies of water, land within 50 feet of a lake, river, stream, wetland or other bodies of water and similar limiting
factors.

Mr. Ron Mayhew
9140 Ivyshaw Landing
Gainesville, GA 30506
Subject:
File Review and Property Inspection
Ivyshaw Subdivision
Gainesville, Forsyth County, Georgia
Dear Mr. Mayhew:
Mill Creek Environmental Services, Inc. (MCES) is pleased to provide the results of our file
review and property inspection Ivyshaw Subdivision.
Purpose and Scope of Work
The purpose of our work was to evaluate Ivyshaw Subdivision septic systems and give our
opinion on the adequacy of the existing systems and the source of fecal coliform detected in the
stream located west of Ivyshaw Drive. The scope of work for this project included the following
tasks:
Review files provided and evaluate septic system designs, construction documents,
permit approvals, and adequacy of the systems to support the existing and proposed
homes.
Conduct a site inspection to investigate the potential source of fecal coliform detected
in the stream located west of Ivyshaw Drive.
Provide our observations, evaluation, and opinion on the above items in this letter
report.
All work for this project was conducted by a Georgia Registered Professional Geologist.
Observations
Based on our review of the files provided and our site inspections, MCES has made the
following observations:
Septic drain fields for the community systems are located within spring setbacks and
in soils classified as unsuitable. These community systems were designed for 4
1818 Perimeter Road Dawsonville, Georgia 30534

Mr. Ron Mayhew

bedroom homes, and based on our observations, it is probable that many of the homes
connected to this system are larger than 4 bedrooms.
Septic system design and permitting documents do not include many of the details
required (equipment and pump specifications, piping layout and specifications, drain
field details and specifications, system maintenance requirements, etc.) for large septic
system designs. Subdivision design documents do not appear to be in compliance with
applicable regulations (Forsyth County UDC, May 22, 2000), good engineering
practice, or standard industry procedures.
A bored well was observed on Lot #17 that was not located on the proposed plan or
permit documents. The septic drain field reserve area appears to be located within the
required 100-foot setback area from this well. Added features on this lot appear to
encroach (fence, porch, landscaping trees) onto the septic drain fields. Installation of
these features may have caused penetration of the chamber structure, potentially
causing the system piping to drain, and therefore overloading soils in any areas that may
be compromised.
Water quality results from KW Soils, Inc. indicate that very high levels of fecal
coliform bacteria were detected in the stream located west of Ivyshaw Drive.
Iron bacteria was observed in water seeping from the eastern bank of the stream
below Lot #17 and from a fracture in the bedrock at the spring head. Cloudy water was
observed in a pool below Lot #18. Iron bacteria blooms are typically caused by
contamination sources. This observation may indicate failure of the septic systems on
Lot #17, Lot #18, and the community septic system located upgradient of Lot #18.
Suitable soil areas on each of the systems installed are relatively small, with very
little to no area remaining for any safety factor. Installation of replacement drain fields
would likely be difficult and impractical.
The observations above were made based on our review of files provided and our site inspection
on October 8, 2012.
Conclusions
Based on the information obtained, it is our opinion that the septic systems in the Ivyshaw
Subdivision are deficient in their design and construction and are currently failing. The failing
systems are causing significant and ongoing impacts to the stream and to Lake Lanier. The very
high levels of fecal coliform contamination detected in the stream are well above the allowable
limits for recreational use and pose a significant risk to anyone coming in contact with Lake
Lanier water in areas near the stream discharge point.

Recommendations
MCES recommends the following actions for the Ivyshaw Subdivision:
Conduct a detailed engineering review of the subdivision plans to include an
evaluation of the plan deficiencies in relation to applicable regulations.
Conduct additional water quality sampling at to further characterize the fecal
coliform contamination detected in the stream.
MCES has provided a cost estimate to assist with recommendations under a separate cover.
We appreciate the opportunity to be of service. Should you have comments or questions about
