Weed Treatment Authorizations Due May 1, 2018 (Attached)
Attached is the 2018 Authorization Form for treatment of of the following: (SEE ATTACHED)
Our Crow Wing Lake LID has contracted with Central MN Aquatics to again be the vendor to treat these weeds. Ron and Michelle Duy, of CMA, will process all the permits for the treatments, survey our lake for the most problematic areas, and apply the treatments as directed. The Curly Leaf Pondweed (invasive species) will be treated lake-wide in the areas designated by high infestation. However, the Sago Pondweed and Swimmers' Itch treatment will be applied in an area around your dock, but only if you authorize the treatment. YOU MUST RETURN THIS AUTHORIZATION FORM by May 1st TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR THESE TREATMENTS!!!
These treatments are provided to lake property owners at no additional charge*. Payment for these treatments come from The Crow Wing Lake Improvement District (LID) funds. The CWL LID fund was established by CWL property owners; and owners determine the specified LID property tax assessment each fall at our CWL LID Annual Meeting. * For a small fee, property owners may choose to purchase a 2nd Swimmers' Itch treatment as an option. Every year there is lots of confusion over these treatments.... and sometimes lake owners are scrambling to get an authorization form at the last minute. The best time to take care of returning this form is NOW! Both our herbicide vendor and the Lake Assn leadership will appreciate your help with this!. A print copy of this form will be mailed to those who are not on this email list. Thank you for sharing your email with the association, you are saving us lots in printing costs and postage. Please download the attached form, print it, sign it and mail it to: Central MN Aquatics, Inc. 26735 Middle Cullen Road Nisswa, MN 56468 FINAL DEADLINE IS MAY 1, 2018.....let's get 'er done now! |
