Lac St-Pierre Association
Welcome to our Website
Mission:
Our mission
is to safeguard the investments made by lake St. Pierre property
owners in their lake properties - both in terms of the economic
investments as well as the quality of life.
Primary Focus :
Our primary focus is the quality of the water.
We recognize
the direct linkage between property values and the quality of the
lake water. We also recognize that the quality of our water is directly
linked to the collaborative efforts of all property owners in managing
the quality of the water. Therefore, our primary focus over the
next year or two is to connect/reconnect with all the property owners
to get them to join our collaborative efforts in managing (i.e.,
safeguarding and improving) the quality of our lake water.
Goals:
To achieve our primary focus of connecting/reconnecting with all
lake property owners to solicit their support in safeguarding their
investments in their lake properties via the overall management
of our water system, we have agreed to the following goals:
- Increase
our membership: we need to inform all property owners of the
negative impact on their investments if we do not collectively
manage the quality of the water. We need to inform them of our
commitment as an Association to work towards safeguarding our
property investments.

- Collaborate
with the Federation of Lakes: we need to inform all property owners of the unique opportunity
we now have to collaborate with other lakes in our water basin. The Federation of Lakes is comprised
of about 30 lakes in Val-des-Monts. We have been informed that
our influence/power at the municipal government level is based
on numbers (i.e., members)
.
- Reliable
water testing: we need to inform all property owners of the
current status of our water quality testing program and the test
results (scientific results) along with a proven and accepted
water quality framework that is realistic and easy to understand.
Refer to the Water Quality section for more details.
- Realistic
strategies: we need to inform all property owners of the major causes of our
water quality situation and agree on which ones are manageable
in the short-term versus which ones are manageable in the longer-term
as well as which ones are no longer or not manageable. For example:
- Septic
systems
- Fertilizers
and insecticides
- Consumable
products (cleaning and hygiene by property owners)
- Management
of shoreline (trees, plants, shrubs, etc.)
- Algae
(the weed problem)
- Land
development (roads, tree clearing, etc.)
- Etc.
