Implementation: Surface Water Zoning
Download: lwa_lakewindermereambassadors_report_lakewindermeremanagementplandsurfacewaterzoning_2011.pdf
In the same way as zoning of land provides certainty to land use, the zoning of the surface of the water will provide certainty to area residents and property owners. The lake has a very limited supply of on water boat storage and access to boat slips based on the number of potential recreational users. Lake Windermere has been fortunate to not experience a significant problem with the placement of mooring buoys to date. The character of the lake may change in the absence of local government regulation to identify when and where mooring buoys may be placed. Surface water zoning will not regulate boating (speed, engine size, restrictions, etc.) as this is a federal responsibility. While the RDEK already has three surface water zones in place for Columbia Lake it is anticipated that new zones will be prepared for Lake WIndermere. The zones will be tailored to reflect the existing moorage on Lake Windermere, Provincial and Federal requirements and consideration of the desired management of future moorage as outlined within the Lake Windermere Management Plan (LWMP).
