LLLA gets ‘intervenor’ status

The Lake Leelanau Lake Association (LLLA) is now a party to a lawsuit over expansion of the Leelanau Pines Campground.

LLLA President Nancy Popa confi rmed this week that the association has been granted intervenor status in Northgate-Leelanau Pines v. Centerville Township.

“Our goal is to be part of the case so our ideas and values can be heard,” Popa said. “We have over 500 members, most of whom live on the lake. The project has the potential to have a big impact on the lake, so we want to be part of it.”
