Lake Management Plan

In 2019, the SOA commissioned a Lake Management Plan for Placid Lake. The plan will be a compilation of information about Placid Lake and its watershed, including geology, soils, wetlands, water quality, and invasive species.

Input from stakeholders, local and state laws, and other regulatory considerations will generate a specific set of management goals, objectives, and actions. The primary stakeholders responsible for implementing actions, as well as potential funding sources, will be identified.

The SOA will use the Lake Management Plan as an essential tool for evaluating and prioritizing threats to the health of Placid Lake for the long-term protection of the Lake. It will assist the SOA and other stakeholders in understanding the resource we are trying to protect and in making informed decisions regarding lake management.
