What is a Lake Plan

A Lake Plan identifies the common values of a lake community, such as water quality, boating capacity, shoreline aesthetics, fish and wildlife habitat, etc., and assists in developing strategies to protect these lake-specific values. 

It may involve working with local community and lake associations, municipal and other levels of government, as well as other interested persons or associations. A lake plan establishes a shared vision for the lake and describes the expectations of a lake community as to how their lake will appear in 20 years and up to 100 years.
​
A lake plan is not a legal document, but may assist a lake community in making recommendations to local municipalities regarding land use policy that benefits the community and protects the values identified in their lake plan.  

Lake Planning is a community-based approach to identify the natural and social characteristics of a lake environment that are important to a waterfront community, individuals and property owners.

It assists in developing stewardship initiatives and action plans to protect these characteristics from threats that may prove harmful to the lake environment.
