Attention: Scott Lake Residents

We are experiencing a great deal of flooding due to heavy rains.


There are sand bags at the community center parking lot and Littlerock Fire House. They are free, please help yourself.


Many streets, ditches and creeks are filling up with water, please be careful out there and take the necessary precautions.

Emergency Water Shutoff – Friday Jan. 7th 2022 approx. 9am-4pm

Due to a broken pipe on the corner of Shoreview/Vantage, water needs to be shutoff to perform the repairs.

The affected streets are Shoreview, Vantage and Scotlac. The homes on these streets are being contacted to prepare for the shutoff.

We suspect that a car into the ditch from the inclement weather could have caused this, but nothing definite. Another piece of news is that we’re investigating additional needed repairs while we’re down there to further improved our water system.

We have been advised that a boil notice will occur after the repairs are finished.

The Park was vandalized again between 12:30 a.m. and 2:00 a.m. on November 27, 2021. A witness has described the vandals as three to four kids. The one female that has shoulder length black hair, one male is a heavier set with short hair and one male that is tall lengthy with a mustache and goatee. The fourth individual was on a reddish color beach cruiser type bicycle with lights. Description of the additional damage and the descriptions of the vandals have been reported to the Thurston County Sheriff’s department.  Anyone with information on who may have done this please contact the Thurston County Sheriff’s office and reference # T21001426 or report number 21-200948.

Trash Bin Reminder

Just a friendly reminder, don’t forget to pull your trash bins in after pickup on Wednesday. This will help prevent blocking of street or driveways. Thank you.

SANDBAGS AVAILABLE

Thurston County Emergency Management provides sandbags to West Thurston Fire for redistribution, as a resource to help protect areas and limit damage during flood situations. There is a limited supply of these sandbags still available at the Scott Lake Maintenance Company Community Center parking lot located at 2631 114th Way SW. Members of the Scott Lake area are encouraged to utilize this free resource. If you are in need of sandbags to help with flooding please feel free to come by the Community Center parking lot and pick some up.
