Cook County Coalition of Lake Associations Celebrates 30 Years of Protecting and Preserving Waters and Shorelands
The Cook County Coalition of Lake Association (CCCoLA) recently celebrated its 30th Anniversary as a citizen organization dedicated to protecting and preserving the Waters and Shorelands of Cook County. CCCo-LA was officially chartered in 1994 with the stated purpose of “the preservation and enhancement of the quality of life on and adjacent to the lakes, rivers, and streams of Cook County, the promotion of a sense of community, the education of its members and others on issues of concern to lake shore property owners, the monitoring of water quality and management, and reporting of observations and findings to its members and other interested persons.” Recognizing that healthy lakes and shorelands have a direct relationship to property values, shoreland residents have both an interest in and responsibility for actively engaging in lake and shoreland stewardship work.
