History of our Lake
District
Around the mid-1960’s, a group of property owners
formed the Riverwoods Association. The activities back then mainly included a
nuisance weed control program and an annual cleanup and debris removal.
In 1991, the Riverwoods Association changed its name
to the McDill Pond Association. Although steps were taken as early as 1977 to
form a Lake District, it wasn’t until 1994 that the McDill Pond Inland Lake
Protection and Rehabilitation District was officially created. The Lake District
was created and operates under Chapter 33 of the Wisconsin State statutes. There
is a 5-member board in addition to a city and county council representative. The
board members serve a 3-year term and are elected at the Fall annual membership
meeting. The board meets on a regular basis and are open to anyone.
Lake district members are generally assessed Lake
District dues every year as needed to cover expenses for weed harvesting and
district expenses. There are currently 171 properties in the Lake District.
