Half Moon Lake Protection and Rehabilitation District

A lake district is a specialized unit of government designed to manage a lake. Like districts in Wisconsin have tremendous opportunities to address lake and watershed management issues. The Wisconsin Legislature has consistently recognized their potential by giving lake districts legal standing, the ability to tax, and eligibility for cost sharing funds, and other state assistance. A lake district is guided and operated by those that live in or own property in the district. Lake districts are exempt from federal income tax. The laws governing lake districts can be found in chapter 33 of the Wisconsin State Statutes.
