Seasonal Camper TemporaryMoving Transition Plan

MWCD is committed to providing assistance by moving your camper, deck and dock to your temporary site, and then moving them back to your newly renovated area.

Seasonal Campers will be notified by letter this fall regarding their temporary move scheduled for the end of the 2017 camping season. 

Seasonal Campers will receive a checklist that will address procedures for moving their camper, deck and dock. 

Seasonal Campers relocated in the fall of 2017 will be moved back to their newly renovated area in Fall of 2018.
