Our purpose
The LKCA is led by a small voluntary committee, and gets involved, as required, to:
-
Provide a conduit between LKCA members and DOC, WDC, Police and other agencies.
-
Advocate for amenity and service issues as required (e.g., road, grassy area, seating, DOC campsite, signage maintenance).
-
Disseminate information.
-
Provide neighbourhood watch and emergency contacts.
-
Recognise trends in increased visitor numbers and subsequent needs of the visiting and residential community.
-
Maintain the well-being of the area and the permanent residents.
-
Perform voluntary weed and rubbish busting.
-
Prepare for civil emergency.
-
Support lake user and safety matters.
-
Provide a cohesive body to undertake the above.
The LKCA does not get involved with:
-
What others do on their own properties.
-
Controversial issues which could polarize residents and holiday home owners.
-
Being ‘lake police’.
Please remember some of these basics:
-
The Association was formed to give your concerns, sanctioned by your peers, support and momentum.
-
If you strongly believe in an issue, take ownership, present it and follow it through.
-
The Association committee and regular meeting attendees are there to support you, but cannot do all the work!
-
Local residents are willing to help you with local information.
-
Local residents are continuing neighbourhood watch activities throughout the year.
