Sherbrooke, June 15, 2023. - Research work will take place on Lake Memphremagog from June 19 to July 7, 2023. During this period, staff from the Ministère de l'Environnement, de la Lutte contre les changements climatiques, de la Faune et des Parcs (MELCCFP) will conduct an inventory of the yellow perch and white perch population. The aim of this work is to establish the status of these two species' populations by measuring various parameters. The MELCCFP is asking all users of Lake Memphremagog to cooperate in maintaining the integrity of the scientific equipment used to ensure the success of the study. The gillnets, identified by white buoys (similar to the image below), will be installed at various locations and depths in the lake according to a set protocol. Users are asked not to walk between or near the buoys, to avoid entangling their own equipment in the ropes or moving the nets. Signs will be posted at the main landing stages to inform customers of this project. Please note that as part of the work, the nets will be moved daily by the research team. One of the aims of the study is to monitor changes in abundance and estimate the impact of white perch on certain species of interest in terms of competition for resources. Analysis of the results will be used to guide decisions on the management of these species, in order to maintain good fishing quality for the main species of interest present in the lake.

Roads We have continued with our five-year plan begun in 2021 by systematically investing in our road network. Despite a difficult winter with many freeze-thaw cycles and a very snowy March, our roads are steadily improving. Roads regravelled- Total of 10.15 km Blueberry Point As there were no complaints received in 2022, the Ministry of the Environment will continue to ensure patrols under the same conditions as last year. Community Activities Large item disposal, art, Spanish, yoga, Tai Chi, Pilates, aqua fitness and knitting classes were held, most of which at full capacity. There is a latent demand for these activities, and they will be continued again this year. We especially thank our council member Claudette Dupras for her organization skills which ensured such a resounding success, along with the leisure committee. Administration Land transfer tax: 36 transfers in 2022 In 2021 : 55 In 2020 : 31 In 2019: 20 In 2018: 24 Land transfers decreased with the slowing of the real estate market in our area. We expect this trend to continue. The surge in inflation combined with the reduction in land transfer tax contributed to the overall increase of property tax for 2023 (7.9%).

In the last issue I gave details of measures we are taking to improve our roads network. I want to update this information. The MRC is presently soliciting tenders for a complete and comprehensive evaluation of its entire road network. We, therefore, will await the results for Ogden in order to guide us for our own network. The tenders will be submitted towards the end of April and the analysis should be completed in 2024. In the meantime, three roads had already been listed by a previous similar MRC analysis. Beebe, Stanstead and Cedarville roads were identified as problematic to the extent that technical studies/analyses as well as actual improvements are eligible for MTQ subsidies (Ministère des Transports du Québec). We are in the process of evaluating technical analysis offers starting with Cedarville, the result of which will confirm the nature of the work required to bring this road up to an acceptable standard. The others will follow in due course.
