Premier Lakes reports minimal algae; littoral plantings, aerator checks planned
Summary
Alex Kurth of Premier Lakes told the River Ridge board on June 25 that crews left the lakes in good condition for the rainy season, littoral plantings are scheduled in about two weeks, noisy aerators will be inspected and a repaired sound box remains under observation.
Alex Kurth of Premier Lakes reported to the River Ridge board that the lakes show very little algae or submersed vegetation after preparatory work for the rainy season and that crews will treat any invasives that return. He said there are a few noisy aerators that staff will inspect and that littoral plantings are scheduled in roughly two weeks; he will confirm a firm installation date with the district manager.
Kurth said a sound box behind a house in the Masters was repaired and his staff was satisfied with the repair, although he has not yet received feedback from district staff or residents. Operations Manager Shane Willis asked Kurth to check the sound level at Lake E1‑C and provide an update at the next meeting.
Why it matters: Routine lake maintenance affects neighborhood aesthetics, mosquito control and aquatic health; scheduled littoral plantings and aerator checks are standard seasonal upkeep.
Next steps: Kurth to provide firm littoral installation dates and report back on aerator and sound level checks at the next regular meeting.
