Environmental

The Association makes available to each property owner a copy of the booklet "A Shoreline Owner's Guide To Healthy Waterfronts". This excellent publication provides background information and advice on ways to make the most of your shoreline property while living in balance with the lake's fragile ecosystem. Contact your Area Representative if you do not have a copy.

In addition to the the above mentioned publication, our Lake Steward writes frequently on lake issues in the monthly News Sheets.

There are a lot of environmental concerns that are specific to waterfront living. On this page you will find a list of websites for additional resources and information.
