DownloadEmergency Sewer calls continue to rise and the Maintenance crew is seeing more and more items that are not supposed to be flushed or put down the sink causing the issues. Please familiarize yourself and your guests of what is appropriate for the sewer system. (click on image above to download a .pdf)
The following PDF downloads contain the budget as approved at the annual meeting on January18, 2025
Expensive sewer pumps are needing to be replaced because members or their guests have placed grease, feminine hygiene products and flush-able wipes in the sewer system. LPA members pay an annual fee for sewer maintenance; however, those fees are not intended to cover the cost of negligent or intentional damage to the system. The placing of items on the "do not place in drains or toilets list" in the system is considered negligent and intentional. If damage is caused to the sewer system that is negligent or intentional, it is the individual lease holder's responsibility to pay for LPA to correct.
Please review and follow the information regarding the sewer system on the website.
Membership Dues: $390
Annual Sewer Assessment: $400
Annual Dredging Assessment: $34
If you have questions or problems, please contact the Lake Office.
All trailers stored at the maintenance area must have a current LPA decal with the owner's lot number posted on the tongue of the trailer.
