The Township of Alnwick/Haldimand has issued an immediate public notice concerning the Dunnette Landing Boat Launch on Rice Lake, after reports surfaced that an individual has been fraudulently charging residents and visitors fees to access the site.
Earlier today, Township staff and Mayor Logel visited the Dunnette Landing Boat Launch to address the issue directly. Official signage has now been installed at the location, making it clear that the boat launch is Township-owned property. A legal land survey from 1973 confirms the Township’s ownership of the site.
Officials stress that there are no fees to use the Dunnette Landing Boat Launch. Any person demanding payment for access is acting without authorization and is engaging in fraudulent activity.
The Township issued the following reminders to the public:
The Dunnette Landing Boat Launch is a public access point owned and maintained by the Township.
No fees apply for its use.
Anyone approached with requests for payment, or subjected to threatening or harassing behavior should immediately contact the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP).
“The Township takes the integrity and accessibility of public infrastructure very seriously,” the statement read. “We thank residents for their cooperation and encourage everyone to report any suspicious or unlawful behavior.”
