About Us The Mountain Island Lake Marine Commission was established through a Joint Resolution of Gaston, Lincoln, and Mecklenburg Counties consistent with enabling legislation approved by the state in 1997. The Commission’s authority includes all matters relating to or affecting the use of Mountain Island Lake and its shoreline to 1,000 feet from the full pond level of 648 feet above sea level. The Commission’s authority, however, is subject to all supervening provisions of law and may not conflict with or supersede provisions of general or special acts or regulations of State or other higher government agencies promulgated under the authority of general law. The Commission strives to preserve and protect property, to preserve and protect wildlife, and to protect and promote public safety for matters relating to, or affecting the use of, Mountain Island Lake in the best interest of all the citizens and property owners in all three counties. The commission will consider all matters in accordance with this purpose. |
