THREE ORGANIZATIONS ONE SPRING LAKE COMMUNITY
Spring Lake has three organizations; and sometimes this can be somewhat confusing. It is confusing, even to those residents who have lived here for 30 years of more. Below your will find a short blurb about each organization that exists in our unified Spring Lake community.
Spring Lake Homeowners Association
Spring Lake Neighborhood Association
Spring Lake
Subdivision Improvement District
The Spring Lake Homeowners Association (SLHA) was created by the developers (LaKRATT CORP) of the subdivision in 1967. In the original ACT OF DEDICATION OF SERVITUDES, RESTRICTIONS, AND PRIVILEGES, membership was described as follows: “Every person or entity who is a record title owner of any lot bonded on the body of water known as Spring Lake shall ipso facto be a member of the Association; all other recorded title holders of any lot in the property may, at their option, become a member of the corporation.” Currently, the 35 lots that border the lake, pay $60 membership dues yearly. These funds are collected by the SLHA. The current president is Tony Riley.
The Spring Lake Neighborhood Association (SLNA) was created to promote all local matters pertaining to the safety, security, improvement, beautification, and maintenance of the area known as Spring Lake Subdivision, which is bounded by Morrison Road on the north, I-10 Service Road on the south, the St. Charles drainage canal on the west, and the Lawrence Canal on the east. SLNA also administers all funds collected and received on behalf of the area described above, including, but not limited to special taxation fees, and/or donations.
The Bylaws of the Spring Lake Neighborhood Association were updated in 2009 and amended May 22, 2019.
Spring Lake's registered voters first went to the polls in 1998 to become a special taxing district with the sole purpose of promoting and encouraging the beautification, security and overall betterment of Spring Lake Subdivision. The special taxing district's official name is the Spring Lake Subdivision Improvement District (SLSID), as noted on the City's website. Prior to 1988, Spring Lake residents voluntarily paid for these services on an annual basis. In 1998, a $200 tax was overwhelmingly passed and the same amount was renewed in 2010 and 2017. In 2019, the Improvement District passed its initial Bylaws. The residents of Spring Lake have taken pride in being true stewards of the funds collected. The City of New Orleans collects these funds annually along with personal property taxes.
