Sacandaga Protection Committee
About
The Sacandaga Protection Committee is a nonprofit founded in 2009 to protect the environmental, economic and legal interests of the Great Sacandaga Lake community, with a mailing address of PO Box 86 in Mayfield. It formed when changes were proposed to the lake’s decades-old access permit system, under which shoreline residents lease lake-access lots from the Hudson River-Black River Regulating District.
The committee retains counsel from Hodgson Russ and a government affairs consultant from Bolton St. Johns, and raises money through summer and fall fundraisers with the Great Sacandaga Lake Business Association.
