bulletThe ability to identify issues of common concern to residents
bulletThe ability to work with McKellar Township to address issues of concern (eg.  Bridge repairs on McKellar Lake Road in 2000, land use and re-zoning issues in the 1990’s)

The Association depends on your annual membership fee of $25 to pay for:

bulletFOCA membership fees
bulletAssociation Liability Insurance (without which, the association cannot exist)
