In the updated maps of the Four Lakes Special Assessment District you can review your tentative Capital Assessment amount and 2025-2029 Operations & Maintenance Assessment amount. The Capital Assessment is shown as a range because the assessment roll will not be finalized until the January 15, 2024, public hearing. The range represents our best estimate at this time. FLTF is responsible for maintaining the legal lake level. Lake improvement boards and townships are responsible for performing aquatic weed control and managing vegetation. Please read this post on our site for more information including who to contact about vegetation control.
Before the January 15, 2024, public hearing property owners are invited to ask an engineer about their assessment costs. Click the button below to learn more or sign up for a 15-minute one-on-one online meeting with an engineer.
On Monday, November 27th, a federal judge ruled that the former owner of Secord, Smallwood, Edenville and Sanford dams is liable for nearly $120 million in damages to the State of Michigan
All Four Dams Under Construction
The Sanford Dam permit for restoration construction was approved Thursday, October 26th, by the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy. The construction crews are mobilizing and work is expected to start this week. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is providing long-term, flexible loans for dam safety projects. FLTF will submit its preliminary application this week and anticipates a response from the Army Corps by late December. If our preliminary application is approved then we will be eligible to receive funding through the CWIFP Loan Program. This loan program is far more favorable than municipal financing with lower interest rates and flexible terms that would benefit the FLTF SAD.
A Notice of Conditional Letter of Map Revision (CLOMR) will be provide in the coming weeks, as a requirement by the State and FEMA for the permitting of the Edenville Dam. Once the Notice is approved by FEMA we will publish it.
