Town of Lady Lake

Thanks to all who joined us today for Walk and Talk with the Town Manager at Snooky Park! It was a perfect fall day to experience all the park has to offer while getting to know your neighbors, Town Manager Bill Lawrence, Mayor Ed Freeman and department heads. We enjoyed spending time with the community while getting some fresh air.

“Walk and Talk” with Lady Lake Town Manager Bill Lawrence at Snooky Park at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 13. Join the Town Manager and Department heads for a casual conversation about the latest town news, services and events while walking through this natural preserve in the heart of town. The 2,000-foot walking trail is surrounded by a canopy of cedar, live oaks, water oaks and palm trees and features amenities such as picnic shelters, water fountains, restrooms and exercise equipment. Attendees with have an opportunity to learn about town operations and ask questions while engaging with our community and meeting their neighbors. Feel free to bring well-behaved dogs on leashes!

Sometimes you have to go door-to-door. This is my Town Manager William Lawrence, who, when I explained I felt uneasy about our communication with a community prone to flooding, jumped up out of his chair and said, “Let’s go!” I quickly printed flyers with Hurricane Milton information and resources, and off we went. I am so happy that we did because, although we gave out 3,000 sandbags in the last day and a half, these residents were not aware of our sandbag operation. Some spoke English as a second language and did not know our emergency alerts are available in more than 30 languages. Others were given misinformation about shelters. They were so thankful that town officials would take the time to visit them personally to check on them and make sure they had accurate information with which to make good decisions. I'm grateful to work for an organization with leadership that supports innovation and technology, and also understands that sometimes you have to go door- to-door.

Our Lady Lake staff are dedicated to keeping our residents safe and facilities secure through Hurricane Milton.
