The Duck Lake Association
meeting held Tuesday, July 13
was well attended and featured a lively and civil discussion of the
mute swan issue. From the meeting minutes:
"Mute
Swans – The Board
distributed a flyer in June regarding the mute swans to all lake
residents. Since the distribution, Board members have had five
comments from individuals in support of removing the swan and three
comments in support of saving the swan. There was much discussion
amongst the Board and guests regarding the swans. The discussion
centered on eye-witness events of individuals harassing or teasing
the swans and eye-witness events of the male swan flying at
individuals. In both instances, the individuals tended to be on
Personal Watercraft (AKA jet-skis). It was mentioned that the swan
was seen going after someone in a kayak. The board asked for an
informal show of hands both the removing the swan and for not
removing the swan. The show of hands indicated a fairly even
split. The Board chose to take no action."
