The CLCC Board of Directors has approved the lowering of the lake starting October 15, 2023, and is expected to reach its desired depth by November 1st. The lake is typically lowered every 5 years for normal maintenance needs for both homeowners and the CLCC to perform. These maintenance items enable CLCC to clean accumulated grit and run-off on the beaches, and to make repairs to boat launches and docks. It also allows for lake front owners to make any needed dock and waterfront repairs to their properties. Although outside of our usual 5-year cycle, we are lowering the lake for some maintenance requirements that were unable to be completed last year. The Lake Resource Committee has acquired the permits for this project from the state of NJ. The lake will be lowered 24" to 30" at the dam. The refill of the lake will begin on March 15, 2024.

We encourage lake front property owners to pull out any weeds and lily pads that are exposed along your lakefront during this lowering period, and to clear up areas of muck if possible. We may ask for volunteers to help clean up some of the beach areas, or exposed lake areas that are property of the shareholders and CLCC.

All boats and docks that are normally taken out for the winter will also need to be removed by October 10, 2023.

Both the CLCC Board and the Lake Resources Committee would like to thank you for your support in this program.
