pay additional the county in to support its

petion of a road through one section of the lake.
After driving around portions of the lake few days
ago would like reemphasize that statement and point
out few additional items
Everywhere went additional summer homes
being built AT almost every dock two boats,
times three and usually of them expensive power
craft, in the $4,000 and $1,000 class
There 1,5OO such boats licensed this year and
5000 permits granted for of boats and with
out motors
Last year it estimated that there around 900
cottages around the lake. many of them assessed $4,000
better but the average estimated at So 000 This year
would be safe in saying that the number of cottages has
increased at least $50, making total of $50.
The countys assessabe basis is $50 million dollars.
OF this amount the Pennsylvania Eectrcs assessment is
around So million and the properties around the lake
estimated assessabe basis of around SIS million This
not take into the value of the along the lake
since these assessabe but they certainly up gas
What we want to emphasize again is that the lake and
adjacent properties reach startling total this year of SS
Million providing than fourth of the entire county

citizen Of the county.
These sections of the lake building up at such
rapid rate that won't take many years add another mil
lion dollars to the tax basis
So let's be thankful have what we have and continue
to appreciate its many benefits.
