From the Boardroom Kathleen Heydon, Board President Lakewood made it through 2020! It was not easy and came with frustrations, anger, disappointments and changes. In many cases, we had to step out of our comfort zones into unknown areas. It was all handled in an atmosphere of class. The Board of Directors would like to express thanks to our staff and Mark Reid for getting us through this “one of a kind” year. It was not stress-free, but they accepted all the challenges along the way, kept us moving forward and were always open to the many adjustments required. None of us know what 2021 will bring but I do know this, In A World Where You Can Be Anything... Be Kind! The Board of Directors sincerely wishes you and your family good health, love, prosperity and success for 2021. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

2020 Lake Water Irrigation Fees Residents who irrigate from the lake should have received their bill in October for lake water irrigation fees in the amount of $196. The fee is not for use of the lake water, but rather for access to the lake water. Access means you have an irrigation pump and intake lines installed. If you have one or both of these items, you are considered to have access to lake water and must pay the lake water irrigation fee. If you choose to not pay the lake water irrigation fee for 2020, you will need to remove the pump and intake lines before December 31, 2020, and notify the LPOA office that you’ve done so by calling 816.373.4326.
