Village of Cazenovia Lake Access
Sign Now
We, the undersigned residents of both the Town and the Village of Cazenovia, wish to express our deep concern with the Village Board resolution to open Lakeside Park access to non-taxpayers. If it should move forward, this change in access to Cazenovia Lake will have the following negative impacts on us as residents;
1. Local taxes will increase due to enforcement and maintenance cost which will exceed the income from fees.
2. Taxpaying residents may lose 50\% of the trailer parking spaces at Lakeside Park to non taxpayers.
3. An increase in the number of larger horsepower boats on the lake will cause additional safety and environmental issues.
We request that the village withdraw its resolution until the following issues are examined and their impacts on our community, our tax structure and our quality of life are more fully understood.
1. The impact of opening the McNitt State Park.
2. The effect of closing the north and south Town of Cazenovia access points.
3. The Comprehensive Planning Committees of the Town and Village are finalized.
4. The benefit to taxpayers is clearly demonstrated to exceed the negative impacts.
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 above points. We urge members of the Village Board to immediately withdraw this resolution.

I would suggest that the issue regarding access is a subset of the larger issue of the need to address regulation of use of the lake by motorboats, whether owned by residents of Cazenovia or outside. The fact is that the lake is small while the number of

I see no advantages to the residents of Cazenovia by allowing public Lake access.

It appears to me that the village is jumping into something that if it does'nt work out , will be difficult to get back. What do we get in return for opening up our lake to outsiders?

This is just another hidden tax increase but also one which benefits non-residents more than the people being taxed. It will also attract more jet skiis and large power boats causing environmental, safety and quality of life concerns.

As a lakefront owner, I know too well the congestion on the lake ~ Restricting access is the only way to ensure that Cazenovia residents have ownership of preserving the lake.

I have spent my entire career, over 38 years in the water quality field and it is my personal and professional opinion that this proposal is not in the best interest of the environmnent of Cazenovia Lake.

It seems to me that this decision is suspiciously "rushed". Common sense would dictate that prudence and a well thought out process would work well here. Just look at the last 18 months: on three nearby lakes - Skaneateles, Oneida, and Forth Lake - 4 fata
