Please remember that all boat slip owners are required to send in the annual HOA membership dues, by check or through using electronic payment options in our membership area, no later than March 1st, 2024. A late payment can result in your loss of the boat slip assignment for the entire season and your name will be added back to the waiting list.

Highland Township has implemented a 3 year SAD for White Lake Improvement Board for our HOA boat slip assignees.  Instead of billing the individuals though their property taxes Highland Township is billing the HOA. We are in turn billing the slip holders in an effort to simplify the process.  This is not an increase in membership fees as the $18 goes directly to the township. If you have questions about what the assessment is for, please contact the White Lake Improvement Board or the township.”

Please pay the SAD using the payment option shown in the example in the member’s section:

Example:

Total should be $18.78, this includes the 78 cent online payment fee.  If you pay by check, please do not include the.78 cent fee and add the 18$ to our annual dues amount.

Dear neighbors and friends, we all know how important it is that we allow emergency vehicles and also our snow plowing services to access our roads at all times and to keep our roads free or snow and ice as much as possible.

We would like to reach out to everyone to remind all of us to keep our roads accessible and to ensure we do not block them unnecessarily by e.g. parking vehicles, trailers or any other obstructions.

Thank you all and if you notice a situation where a blocked street might cause an issue, please talk to your neighbors and ask them nicely, which might resolve the issue quickly.

For questions or concerns please contact any member of the board.

Thank you to our friends from the WLCL

With the cold weather here and the lake freezing over it is a good time for an Ice Safety reminder.

Minimum Safe Thickness for Ice

Actions to be taken if someone falls through the ice

Remember that the lake does not freeze evenly. Beware of areas, such as between the 7 Harbors Point and Dawsons Island, that do not freeze well.

For further information see: How to Know When Ice is Safe 

Enjoy the Outdoors Safely!!

To all 7 harbors current Slip Holders:

As reviewed at previous 7 Harbors general membership meeting in October 2023, the White Lake Improvement Board (WLIB) has worked with White Lake and Highland townships to renew the special assessment (SAD) for White Lake maintenance items. Refer to your tax information from the township for details.

New for 2024-2026, the WLIB is assessing an additional $18 per slip for neighborhood slips like we have in 7 harbors. Highland township is billing 7 harbors directly; therefore this $18 annual SAD charge will be passed on to white lake slip assignees via your annual bill for simplicity.

Note: This IS NOT an increase in your 7H membership dues, merely a pass through of the WLIB assessment. Slip assignees will see the additional $18 each year for 2024-2026.

Please ensure, if you are a current boat slip holder within 7 Harbors, to add this additional 18 USD to your annual HOA dues, which have to be paid by latest March 1, 2024.

If you do select electronic payment option Dues Payments & Donations Electronic Payment Option, please select the additional payment options for past dues or other fees to pay the additional 18 USD SAD as a separate payment, after you paid your annual HOA dues. If you choose to pay by check, please add the additional SAD Fees (if applicable) to the HOA Dues Amount.

This was reviewed at the October 2023 General meeting and can be found in the minutes, however if you have questions or for more information, please go to White Lake Citizens League – Page Title (wlcl.org) or reach out to the members of the 7 Harbors board at any time.
