What is the Ratepayers and Community Association Meeting?
Each year, the Municipality of Trent Lakes holds an annual Ratepayers and Community Association Meeting.

It is an opportunity for the public to voice their ideas, comments or concerns to members of Council.

Update by Parks Canada:

Parks Canada's water management team continues to actively monitor water levels, flows, and weather forecasts across the Trent-Severn Waterway National Historic Site. These factors are used to determine dam operations on a daily basis for the Trent-Severn Waterway National Historic Site.

Please be advised of semi-annual water distribution system flushing.

Residents may notice a decrease in system pressure and discoloration of the water during this period. If you notice discoloration, please run the cold tap water until it clears.

Please call us if you have any questions or comments on how the Ontario Clean Water Agency can better serve you.
