History

The Hamlet of Mount Lorne was established in 1990 and the first Local Advisory Council (LAC) was elected. LAC´s are governed by the Municipal Act and are an advisory body with no legal status. The Mt. Lorne LAC is elected from residents in legislatively defined boundaries of the Hamlet: Kookatsoon Lake; Cowley Lake; Robinson; The Meadows; and Annie Lake Road. Elections are held every three years. Council meetings are held once a month and are open to the public. LAC´s receive annual operational funding from the Yukon Government for which they are accountable.

Mandate

The council´s mandate is

A. To advise the Minister on:

1. What works or services are required within the local advisory area and how these should be supplied

2. The regulations deemed desirable for the benefit of the residents; and

3. Any other matter of local concern

B. To facilitate community involvement in matters concerning the community

Land Development Issues

One of the main reasons for the creation of the Hamlet was to address land use and land development issues. The Mt. Lorne LAC initiated the undertaking of a land use plan for the Hamlet, a process which began in 1991 and was completed in 1995 when the Hamlet of Mt. Lorne and Carcross Road Area Plan was accepted by Cabinet. Over the years the Mt. Lorne LAC has advised the government on many land use and land disposition issues in the Hamlet.
