VILAS COUNTY LAKES ASSOCIATION: Shoreland Property Owners Education Packet

Purpose

Vilas County Lakes Association (VCLA) is sponsoring a project which will provide education through partnerships with the general public and lake associations by producing another 750 "Shoreline Property Owners Education Packets", similar to those produced during 2005. The packets will: 1) welcome new property owners to their Vilas County lake 2) educate new owners about lake and shoreland stewardship (the project's main goal) 3) strengthen lake associations, by providing accurate and important information they can use to further lake protection goals and 4) introduce shoreland owners to WI DNR, Vilas County, UW-Extension, and WI Association of Lakes and the resources they provide for shoreland property owners. The packets will be available at the VCLA Annual meeting, Lake Fairs and Lake Association Meetings where VCLA has an educational booth, Vilas County realtors, and the Vilas County Courthouse at the Land and Water Conservation Office. Activities include: 1) VCLA will research and assemble the best available literature on lake and shoreline property management. 2) VCLA will print and/or gather the literature and assemble the shoreland packets. 3) A newsletter announcement and e-mail will alert the partners that they are available. 4) Annual meeting announcement and distribution. 5) Distribution at Lake Associations and Lake Fairs - June-September 2006. 6) Distribution at Vilas County Land and Water Conservation Department - October-December 2006.
