Lakewood Village Association is a PRIVATE association for MEMBERS ONLY. Anyone who is not a member, or is not directly with a member as their guest, who is using these private amenities is subject to TRESPASSING charges. Members may not give 'permission' for others to use any of the amenities in their absence. Members need to be prepared to show identification to patrols and/or law enforcement when deemed necessary; LVA membership cards and wrist bands are available at the LVA office.
NOTICE: The entire surface of Lake Colchester is a NO WAKE lake. If you have watercraft registered on the lake, you signed an agreement that states you agree to the terms on the Agreement.
The DNR defines NO WAKE as follows: "The operation of a watercraft at the SLOWEST speed necessary to maintain steerage, in no case greater than 5 mph. This is to for safety of individuals in the lake; and to protect shorelines, as well. The wake a boat creates will have an impact on the shoreline and on people's property and docks."
Please be advised: This is the standard the LVA Patrols will use. No Exceptions. Loss of Privileges can result for the Violation of LVA Rules.
THE LAKEWOOD VILLAGE ASSOCIATION MEMBERSHIP APPROVED THE PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE ARTICLES & BYLAWS on May 9, 2020
WHAT ARE THE BOUNDARIES OF LAKEWOOD VILLAGE ASSOC
REMINDER: FIREWORKS ARE NOT PERMITTED ON ANY LAKEWOOD VILLAGE ASSOCIATION COMMON PROPERTIES, INCLUDING WITHIN or ON LAKE COLCHESTER.
You are also reminded to be considerate of the Lakewood Noise Nuisance Ordinance. Please be mindful of courteous respect for all residents, respecting their rights for peaceful enjoyment of the lake and Common Properties.
ATTENTION:
Everyone knows that drinking or ingesting lake water is not a good idea. This is a reminder that there are many organisms, bacteria, little creatures and other chemicals (beyond our control) that populate any lake; and care should be taken to avoid drinking or swallowing the water should you choose to be in the water. If you or the family experience illness after swimming in the lake, you should immediately contact your health care provider and get checked out. It was recently brought to our attention that a resident suspects they became ill through inadvertently swallowing lake water. This emphasizes the need to both be careful, and contact your health care provider if you are not feeling well.
NORTH SHORE
North Shore will be located on Lake Colchester adjacent to the interchange of Highway 5 and Highway 28 in Norwalk, Iowa.
Primarily a lakeside residential project, North Shore will include some commercial sites along Highway 28 and will feature over 500 lakeside home sites, about 500 townhome units, and a limited number of lake view apartments.
It is estimated that the total taxable value of the project will increase Norwalk's tax base by over $300,000,000.
North Shore will be sold directly to a developer for its improvement of vacant land for sale of developed lots and sites to individuals.
FAQ: Will the North Shore Development be a part of the Lakewood Village Association, Inc.
