Contact Officials

Lake area residents and visitors should contact their officials to make their concerns known.  It is often advisable to initially submit your concerns via email and then follow-up with a telephone call a few  days later.  Here are some guidelines for your communications.

  • Be courteous but firm;
  • Direct your communications to the appropriate individual(s). For example, if you are concerned about the impact of lower water levels on the value of your property, you should be contacting the county assessors office.
  • Describe how lower water levels have personally impacted you.
  • Provide photographs showing water levels before and after the RAR project.
  • Ask for specific action to be taken to confirm the source of the problem by an independent consultant.
