At a minimum, since we're constantly reminded that the lake is a state resource, then the state should pick up the tab..

I agree as well. Milfoil is not just a town problem, it is everyone's problem.
I also see LG's point and how a devaluation of waterfront properties will have a huge impact on the tax burden on the non-waterfront properties, assuming the base remains the same.
