Following the presentation, Doreen was asked to reach out to other Lake and Property Associations in Lanark County to find out their key issues. Conversations with Otty, Davern, Black, Robertson, Long, Little Silver and Rainbow, Christie, and Pike Lake Associations yielded many of the same comments as those covered in the presentation.
