1) Milfoil grows best where there is an abundance of siltation—and siltation is the result of "land disturbance", coupled with structures and "impervious surfaces".

2) With every NW wind, I frequently see milfoil strands drifting past my dock: I ask myself, "Where did that strand come from?"

3) As a result of keeping my property in natural forest—entirely free of lawn—I'm expected to pay for the land-abuse of Moultonborough developers?

The Lake has yahoos?

This year, funds collected for boat registrations didn't fare all that well.
