New water valve keys

Everyone whose lot got new water shut off valves in our recent water piping replacement project received a key that is to be used to turn the water on and off for their lot.

For most lots, the key works just fine, but there are some lots where the shut off valve is deeper in the ground and the keys are not long enough to reach the valve without a significant reach into the hole.

If your lot has one of these deeper valves, please let the board know this week, and we will order longer keys for those share lots. You can email BLE.board.water@gmail.com with your name and lot number. The keys will be ordered August 25, so be sure to let us know this week if you need one.

Thanks to everyone who came out to the August 3 Community Stand-up meeting. It is always great to get community members together to share ideas!

A summary of what was covered was emailed to everyone on our mailing lists and is also attached here in the Lake News Blog.

Join us on July 26 at the burn pit! Jason, from FireSmart Canada, will be presenting us with a firesmart award and then leading a firesmart refresher and work party from 9:30-11:30am.

Join Us for a Stand-Up Meeting

We’re getting together on Saturday, August 3 for a quick stand-up meeting to share updates and gather feedback from the community as we plan for the year ahead. Your input is important—we’d love to hear from you!

Happy Canada Day!

Big thanks to Ashley for organizing and to everyone who showed up to celebrate!

Huge thanks to everyone involved in our water system upgrade! The system is now back up and running at regular capacity for the summer

We all got a good start on firesmarting at BLE last summer. Let’s keep the momentum going this year!
