The Caledonia board voted five to zero to protect their residents from future problems if Candlewick Lake were to become a city. After all the rhetoric presented by the group wishing more government the Caledonia board did not lose sight of their primary responsibility to vote in the best interests of their constituents. They are to be commended for their action in denying the request for permission to incorporate.
Their action also was in the best interest of the Candlewick Lake community itself. Our association has been operating well financially, increasing police protection, working to clean our lake environment for the benefit of all, and not as an association interfering in the operations of the surrounding villages. That is as it should be.
We had indicated prior to the meeting the Pride would be sending just a token representation to clarify any issues in question. We were treated again with courtesy and we thank Caledonia for that as well.
