OTLPA FOUNDATION PURPOSE AND PROJECTS

THE OTTERTAIL LAKE PROPERTY OWNERS ASSOCIATION FOUNDATION WAS CREATED AS A SUPPORTING ORGINIZATION TO OTLPA.

THIS WAS DONE RATHER THAN FORM A LID (LAKE IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT) TO SECURE FUNDS FOR PROJECTS THAT PROTECTS AND PRESERVES OUR LAKES AND RIVERS.

THESE FUNDS WOULD BE USED TO ASSIST IN CONTROLLING A PROBLEM THAT WOULD ARISE. EXAMPLES WOULD BE MILFOIL HARVESTING, SPRAYING, TREATING AREAS WITHIN A LAKE AREA.

THE FOUNDATION HAS ALSO PARTNERED WITH THE DNR WITH WATERCRAFT INSPECTORS AND HIRED 2 OF OUR OWN WATERCRAFT INSPECTORS.
