DEAR RESIDENTS OF BEAR LAKE TOWNSHIP, PLEASANTON TOWNSHIP,

ONEKAMA TOWNSHIP, AND THE VILLAGE OF BEAR LAKE:  

​

Last week, a mailing was sent out containing documents pertaining to the proposed new Two Lakes Collaborative Sewer Authority (“TLCSA”) and the new proposed sewer system that would include bear lake and portage lake. The Township Clerk’s offices have received many calls and/or other inquiries of concern about this mailing. These inquiries were prompted by the fact that the clerks names and addresses were placed on the return address portion of the envelopes, containing the mailing. The placement of the clerk’s names and addresses within the envelope’s return address was not proper because the clerk did not send out these letters. The letters were in fact sent out by two lakes sewer concerned citizens (“TLSCC”).  Correlatively, the Township Clerks did not author any part of the cover letter included inside the mailing which resembles a township billing statement to some degree.
