]]> Wed, 18 Jan 2023 12:52:09 UTC 24371358 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/24314494?utm_medium=rss The lake is to small for a public boat launch. Even if they allow a fixed number of 10 boats, the lake is to small for them to move around safely. The lake is a small quiet peacful lake for those who live and vacation in it. Those people pay outrageous taxes as it is. You would ruin one of the smaller lakes we have without all the tourists, and lets face it, we dont have many of those left. The amount of aquatic invasive species that would come with those boats, it will ruin the lake. They might have the property for a large amount of people but what about the safety of the swimmers, paddleboarders and boaters.

Their continued dishonesty and large scale plans for the property show that they have no consideration for the residents of the lake or the surrounding neighborhoods. The property should be maintained as to allow all members of the public an opportunity to enjoy the natural beauty of Northern Michigan without the noise and litter that come with large event spaces.

]]> Tue, 22 Mar 2022 06:48:29 UTC 24239716 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/24239706?utm_medium=rss We do not want this, the traffic on Hobbs Hwy will destroy this area.

]]> Tue, 22 Mar 2022 06:23:12 UTC 24239706 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/24238961?utm_medium=rss Traffic, noise, lights will destroy the beauty of our neighborhood. We look directly across Indian Lake at Hobbs Highway, and the increased traffic would ruin our peaceful environment.

Also the idea of keeping cabins and camping open and able to be used by small groups or for the educational programs. I think large events with potential for noise, traffic, environmental damage and increased wear on the infrastructure without paying into a tc base to help offset the cost is not acceptable as being a good neighbor. I like the low key, low profile this property enjoyed during Boy Scout era is a much better option for being a good neighbor for the surrounding area.

As a full time resident, I’ve seen constantly our Forest Lakes Overlay not being enforced. The impact on these midsize and large events is not what is good for our fragile area.

]]> Tue, 1 Feb 2022 04:14:37 UTC 24214305 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/24214302?utm_medium=rss We need to protect our Forest Lake Area. Our area is already getting too overcrowded with short term rentals and don’t need an event center. The forest lake overlay was made for a reason and is not being enforced even now.

]]> Tue, 1 Feb 2022 03:16:37 UTC 24214129 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/24213892?utm_medium=rss Mon, 31 Jan 2022 03:03:36 UTC 24213892 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/24213891?utm_medium=rss Mon, 31 Jan 2022 02:16:35 UTC 24213891 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/24213842?utm_medium=rss We've owned a cottage on Rennie Lake for 10 years. We bought property on this lake due to the well-intended activities on and around the lake that have kept it a desirable location in East Bay Township. This has been our peaceful family getaway spot for many family get togethers.
Allowing the profits of someone or an entity to bully its way onto the lake after seeking Township approval would be shameful. This likely would prove harmful to the wildlife in and around the lake and compromise safety of resident boaters, kayakers, paddleboarders, and swimmers. I would see the effects of the proposed operation to decrease surrounding property values, assessments, and tax revenues.
We believe allowing a large-scale operation to overtake a small lake would be a huge mistake that cannot be reverse once recognized. Please do not allow this to happen.
Thank you,
Ken Kappler

One of the reasons I love Rennie Lake is because it is so peaceful. What Gorec wants to do is put in a loud rowdy venue on a small lake Disturbing the people who live on the lake and the wildlife

One of the reasons I love this area so much is that it has not been taken over by people who don’t care about the area and the wildlife. There are very few places where you can find mating loons.

I am very concerned about the possibly irreversible environmental effects that the GOREC plan would have on the lake and surrounding environment. I believe it is much wiser to prevent negative effects from happening than it is to try and mitigate them later, if that would even be possible.

To follow through with GOREC is a huge mistake that is irreversible and will destroy (and pollute) what the Scout Camp stood for and cared for since it's onset. GOREC truly won't respect what we have here and their lack of truthfulness solidifies the destruction to come. This type of plan is illegal for a reason. No exceptions.

GOREC’s 30 large-sized special events WILL have adverse effects on our community.

Please keep the land usage dedicated to respecting the woods, animals, and people who live nearby.
