Lakes Commission Purpose

The Lindenhurst Lakes Commission supports a comprehensive program that incorporates both protection and restoration activities, as appropriate, to effectively improve and maintain the quality of our Village lakes.

Meetings are held on the 3rd Tuesday of every other month in the Village Hall board room (January, March, May, July, September, and November).

Click here to visit the Lakes Commission website, which is independently updated and maintained by volunteer members of the Lakes Commission.
