You are invited to attend one of five open houses on lake management plans being developed for Balsam, Cameron, Pigeon, and Sturgeon lakes.
The plans involve developing and implementing best practices for restoring and protecting the health and sustainability of your lake, and dealing with various issues such as aquatic plants, contaminated runoff, development pressures, E.coli, sediments, invasive species, and others.
Each plan is in a different stage of development, and will be completed in upcoming years, and then implemented following completion.
- STURGEON LAKE MANAGEMENT PLAN (2014) – Review and provide comments on an early draft of the plan
- BALSAM & CAMERON LAKE MANAGEMENT PLAN (2015) – Get an update and provide input on plan development
- PIGEON LAKE MANAGEMENT PLAN (2016) – Identify the issues to be addressed in the plan, including impacts to lake health and your enjoyment of the lake
Each open house is from 7 to 9 p.m., and will include information about each of the plans, and an opportunity to comment. There will also be special guest presentations on various topics, starting at 7:00 p.m. Check our website for details.
