Dear –
This past year was a turning point in the path to
restoration for the Four Lakes of Gladwin and Midland counties. Four Lakes Task Force acquired substantial funding, implemented a
special assessment district, and met significant engineering and construction
milestones – all leading to a project that can be financed and is now moving
forward – which you can read about in the 2022 report. From
letter-writing campaigns to fundraisers to volunteer lakebottom clean-up groups
to generous donations and grants, our progress is thanks to all the organizations
and individuals who gave their time, talents and resources. A special thank you to our elected officials who came
through for us in Lansing and Washington D.C., and the county boards of
commissioners that approved the projected project planning costs.
We have high expectations for 2023. Our goals are clear and I am proud of the team, volunteers and companies
working to make this a success. We look forward to another year of
progress and appreciate the support of the Four
Lakes communities.
