TLWA membership distribution map
Waterfront land parcels from the Oneida County Land Records are color coded to represent TLWA Membership status as of May 2023. These maps were generated as a visual guide to TLWA participation within the Three Lakes Chain. They became a tool for the Membership committee, Lake Captains, shoreline monitors, and neighbors to assist in identifying under-represented areas where new members could be sought out and encouraged to join.
