Mohegan Lake Legal Defense Fund

History of this site

This site was originally set up to fight 3 of 5 zoning variances proposed by the FBC development at Sagamore Trail and Mohegan Ave that eliminates two single family homes while nearly quadrupling the parking and occupancy loads of the old Lakeland Jewish Center. That effort failed and the application is currently before the Planning Board.

While Save Mohegan Lake will continue to update you on that issue, we are moving on to all issues affecting the lake, such as Mohegan Lake Improvement District (MLID) meetings, agenda and budget. This site is not an official mouthpiece for MLID, but some updates will be provided on this site; the official site is located here.

We do it all here, so long as it's Mohegan Lake related. Feel free to submit comments, content, garage sale notices, police blotters, PSA's, essays on the virtues of our 105 acre ice rink, rants, raves, etc... We love it all.

History of Mohegan Lake

David O. Wright, Esq. has been a seminal force in documenting the history of Mohegan Lake. He's been called "the father of Mohegan Lake."

You can read the history he's meticulously compiled by clicking on this link(pt. 1), or this link(pt.2), or this link(pt. 3).

It's important that the people who live in our community have a voice in shaping the future of Mohegan Lake, and we can't make our voices heard--responsibly--without knowing the history of the area.
