The Potters Lake Protection and Rehabilitation District (PLPRD) was formed in 1976. For nearly 50 years, the PLPRD has worked to maintain, protect, and improve the quality of Potter Lake. All riparian (lakefront) owners on Potter Lake are part of the district. As riparian owners, we each have a responsibility to care for Potter Lake.
