In case anyone is wondering why the Blurb is out now it’s because our volunteer
Editors’ work schedule is crazy at the end of the month and in the spirit of cooperation
we are moving to the middle of the month. It’s the same great Blurb, with lots of great
information, but for now we are on a different schedule.
The CLCC is sponsoring its annual St. Patrick’s Day Party on Saturday, March 15th,
at the Clubhouse. A flyer is enclosed, please check it out for the details, and PLEASE
contact Ken [email protected] with your reservations.
We have a dilemma with our Hub Lakes Sports Program in that we are in dire need
of a few coaches. Coaches are needed for: Men’s Volleyball, Table Tennis, Women’s
Volleyball and Women’s Softball. Teams without coaches will have to be eliminated
from the Hub Lakes Schedule. Surely there is someone who participates on those
teams who can volunteer to coach? The Hub Lakes Board needs to know in order to
print the names in the Booklet. Please call Susan if you would be willing to coach this
season (201-280-8400).
On February 21st the Cedar Lake Fishing Club sponsored a Spaghetti dinner at the
Clubhouse that was a huge success. There was quite a crowd there and the Fishing
Club really did a great job on the food, the decorations and the fun. Thank you
Fishing Club for a lovely evening.
The Cedar Lake Community Club is preparing for our 75th Anniversary party
which is to be held on June 7th. If anyone would like to be a part of the committee
or has any ideas, please call a board member or email [email protected].
Hopefully this warm weather will remain with us and summer will be right around
the corner.

CLCC President

Cedar Lake Property Owners Update
The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection has approved
the engineering plans as submitted by CHA, dam engineers, on behalf of
the CLPO, for the dam repairs that were mandated by the department. A
permit was issued to the CLPO on February 10, 2014 for the construction
project to raise the existing road that traverses the dam crest and replace the
riprap on the downstream slope of the spillway culvert outlet. The project
also encompasses modifications to the East Beach as well as modifications to
the parking lot and Community Club entrance.
A meeting between the CLPO, CHA and the town engineer is slated for
early March to review the project scope and formalize the work schedule.
Roadwork and related construction is anticipated to begin in late summer
of this year.
Stockholders were assessed $475/household for the repairs in November,
2013 and are reminded that payment is due by March 1 or three installment
payments of $159(due December 15); $158 (due March 15); and $158 (due
June 15). Failure to pay this assessment will result in legal action.
In addition, the annual Share of Expense of $450 was due February 1.
Installment payments are available and encouraged to meet this obligation.
For those stockholders in arrears for at least two years, the CLPO will take
legal action to obtain these past due debts.
A special thanks to Art Pfeils for removing a tree that had fallen into the
lake at Landing #3. Art took advantage of the ice and “a warm Saturday”
in late January to tackle the job.
The CLPO would like to remind owners that it is not responsible for
individuals who venture out on the ice. The CLPO does not monitor ice
conditions at any time in any manner. Please be wary of thin ice caused by
springs. Skating and Ice Fishing are at your own risk. You are responsible
for yourself and your guests.
Although summer seems a long ways off especially with all the snow and
ice still covering the area, the CLPO Swim Committee is putting together
the summer swimming staffing. Lifeguards are needed for the 2014 swim
season. Applicants must be a minimum of 16 years old and hold a Red
Cross Waterfront Certification and current CPR. No experience necessary.
Full and part time positions are available. If interested please email clpo@
optonline.net or contact the CLPO office at 973-586-6334.
Our condolences go out to Daisy Sirico, 103 Cedar Lake West, whose
husband, John, recently passed away. On Saturday, February 22, a horse
drawn hearse carried John through the lake for one last time.
The winter weather and storms has made travel on Cedar Lake roads
even more challenging. Please be considerate of the conditions and slow
down not only for others but also for your own safety.
