Updates.
Street Renaming
Dear Clear Lake Residents,
I wanted to update you on the Street Renaming
Project. First of all I wish to thanks all of you for your patience
throughout this entire process. All of the entities involved have worked
hard to make this change seamless as possible. The Post Office (USPS) has
completed it's work, the GIS system has been updated, and all first
responders have the updated information. The USPS Address Manager in
Indianapolis informed me that they have completed their downloads. However,
it will take time for companies to update their records. This means if your
are trying to change your address for various accounts on your computer you
may not be able to do so until they update their records. Most companies do
this month or by-monthly. In the meantime your old address is still good for
one year. Steuben County Election officials have updated voter
records. You will be able to use valid ID which has your old address.
Once again thank you for your patience.
Bob Lewis
President, Clear Lake Town Council

Golf Cart
Regulations & Application.
To register your Golf Cart, bring the
completed form and fee to Clear Lake Town Hall during normal business hours.
Upon receipt of the completed form at Town Hall, the Marshal will schedule a
time to visit your lake home to inspect your Golf Cart, Gator, Ranger etc. Upon successful inspection of your vehicle, you will be issued your
registration sticker.
Message from Amy Schweitzer, Zoning Administrator - Check before starting your project.
Before starting your project, be it a deck, cement work, a fence, a
shed, remodeling or rebuilding your cottage please check with me to make sure the
project meets the requirements of the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO). Further, almost all projects (interior or exterior) require a Building Permit
from Steuben County. There is nothing worse than to start your
project only to learn that the project does not comply with the UDO or the
Building Code.
We all want to keep Clear Lake the greatest place to live.
Unified Development Ordinance
The Unified Development Ordinance is available at the
following link: Unified
Development Ordinance (Amended 10/10/2011). The Clear Lake Zoning Map is available on the Steuben
County GIS System at this link:

The Town of Clear Lake's Comprehensive Master passed in 2007 is available

Message from the Marshal - - - BE NOSY! OBSERVE! REPORT!
Our Marshal & Deputy Marshals advise town residents and property owners to give
your cottage a “lived in” look. You can do this by installing timers on
interior lights in various rooms and having a neighbor check your cottage
periodically. Also, it is a good idea to remove mailboxes and newspaper
holders rather than placing tape on them to prevent papers and advertisement
flyers from accumulating. The tape and/or accumulated papers shout “No One’s
Home”!
Please be sure to update your owner information if you have moved or
changed any other important information. You may use our Owner Information Link to make any changes that
are necessary. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions. Thank you
for your cooperation.
