We Did It!!

Thanks to the generous support of the Harris Lake & South Magnetawan River community, we have achieved our HLSMR Fire Committee fundraising goal of $8,000!

What an amazing community we have. A huge thank you to everyone who donated cash and/or materials to help us achieve this lofty goal. With your support we have taken a huge step towards ensuring the safety of our lake, our volunteer firefighters, and preventing another terrible loss like we saw this past summer.

If you are still thinking of donating, it is never too late and the need never ends. Visit the website for details (https://www.hlsmr.org/fire-fundraising)

We would also like to thank you for all your support throughout the year. The Harris lake community is truly something special to belong to.

Thank you all and have a wonderful holiday season.

The work for the dam has been completed. Water levels are stable. morinfo to come

Bell Communications Tower Update

March 20, 2014/ BRIAN MCLELLAN

On March 13, 2014 members of the Cottagers' Association Board met with Bell Communications and the Archipelago Planning Board to discuss the siting of the new Bell Communications Tower. The planning board has given their letter of concurrence to Bell with the following stipulations:

Bell will install a 100 foot temporary tower at the Marina location for no more than 12 months
The permanent tower will be built at the public dock site
The tower cannot exceed 70 meters (230 ft)
Bell will try to create a tower that will not require lighting
The tower cannot be augmented by Bell or any co-locating company without a letter of concurrence from the Archipelago Planning Board.

Once the Archipelago Planning Board receives the final map depicting the new location of the tower, a copy of this letter will be prepared by the Planning Board and will be posted on the HLSMR website.
