NORTH SHORE MAILBOXES Brian Hogan showed a sample mailbox structure to be erected and asked for volunteers to help with the construction.
WATER QUALITY Brian Hogan stated the we have been accepted into the state funded water testing program through our membership in the Citizen's State Lake Assessment Program. A copy of their report was distributed showing that the pH level was extremely low, which is good. A suggestion was made for property owners to have their septic systems inspected and pumped out every two years. In 1993, along with water testing, a sample of weeds will be taken to determine what types they are. The study will also try to determine how nitrates get into the lake.
