Our Mission & Activities
Our Mission
We work to resolve the issues that matter most to our members and their families to preserve the use and enjoyment of their properties. The work of the association is done by a volunteer Board of Directors elected by the members at the Annual General Meeting. We welcome volunteers to join our committees and assist at our events.
Issues of concern:
- Concerns about the local natural environment, including invasive species
- Impact of development and tourism in the township and adjacent areas
- Impacts of development, including floating cottages
- Responsible use of Crown land
- Prudent use of tax dollars in Carling
- Car parking and docking for water access properties
- Boating safety and noise pollution
- Provincial and federal advocacy issues through our membership with the Georgian Bay Association
Our Activities
- Attending Council meetings and reporting on the monitoring activities and decisions of the Township of Carling
- Working with the township on parking solutions for water access properties and visitors to Carling
