(Lake of Bays, ON) The Township of Lake of Bays is introducing a tap-to-donate system at its three public water refill stations in Baysville, Dwight, and Hillside. Staff and Council hope these devices will encourage more donations in our increasingly cashless world to help with the costs associated with this free, year-round service available for campers, visitors, and residents.
Funds collected at these sites will help offset the cost of operating the water taps, support the future replacement of aging wells, and contribute to the local fire department, along with other municipal initiatives.
The Council of the Township of Lake of Bays is pleased to announce the completion of Operation Facelift, a project dedicated to enhancing and renovating the Lake of Bays Community Centre.
Please be advised that the ongoing Canada Post strike may cause delays in payments for vendors currently requesting cheques.
The Township of Lake of Bays will make every effort to ensure prompt payments and strongly encourages vendors to switch to electronic payments to avoid disruptions.
The Township of Lake of Bays Council has voted to pause the implementation of a proposed Municipal Accommodation Tax (MAT) program during the November 12, 2024, Council meeting. This decision follows valuable public input from a community survey and local accommodators.
