We received many questions during the webinar and did our best to answer as many as possible. Please review the special assessment FAQ page where many questions are addressed.
There are some questions, no matter how many times they are asked or stated, that the answer won’t change. A claim of appeal was filed in Midland Circuit Court challenging the Gladwin and Midland County Boards of Commissioners’ approval of the special assessment rolls required to restore Secord, Smallwood, Wixom and Sanford lakes. The claim of appeal was submitted to the circuit court by the Heron Cove Association which seeks on behalf of its members to set aside the current special assessment rolls.
A new fact sheet about Four Lakes Task Force provides background information and summarized plans for the recovery and restoration of the four dams. The document includes background information about the lakes and dams, details about estimated funding, and an overview of the four critical issues for success. We encourage you to take a look and even print a copy for yourself!
The lake levels of each of the four lakes are legally established, along with the Four Lakes Special Assessment District. This was done under Part 307, Inland Lakes, of Michigan Natural Resource and Environmental Protection Act. P.A. 451 of 1994 as amended.
