Protect Cazenovia Lake

To:  TO: The Village and Town Boards of Cazenovia, New York.

Mr. Mayor, Madam Supervisor and Members of the Village and Town Boards:

The Village of Cazenovia recently passed a resolution expanding use of Village launch at Lakeside Park. A review of this policy was to be conducted within one year of its enactment. Due to the timely nature of this review, we, the undersigned residents of the Village and/or Town of Cazenovia, New York, have added our names to this petition because we wish to go on record as agreeing to the following findings:

1) We believe that the expanded Village launch policy has caused, and will increasingly cause, profound and irreversible damage to Cazenovia Lake and its environs.

2) We believe the current Village launch policy is not in the best interest of the residents of the town and village nor the environment of Cazenovia Lake.

3) We believe water quality and the existence and/or threat of invasive species on Cazenovia Lake are paramount concerns to the citizens of Cazenovia which require Village action in one of two ways:

a) Amend Village launch law to require visual inspection of all boats at Village launch whenever launch is open by trained personnel or

b) If municipalities are not committed to the 100% inspection system, the 2008 Village Launch regulation changes should be revoked.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
