District hears lake maintenance update; compressor sound reduced but tone remains a concern

Jul 23, 2024

Premier Lakes reported routine algae growth, removal of a shoreline palm and that a compressor cabinet reduced measured noise from 64 to 52 decibels at Masters Lake; operations staff said the sound’s tone remains an issue and the board asked staff to study moving the compressor and to hold planting at Lake E4-A pending agreement with the Edgewater Association.

The full story

Bill Kurth of Premier Lakes told the board the lakes, preserves and dry retention areas are generally in good condition but noted seasonal algae growth and that a palm tree along the shoreline of Lake E7A was removed. He said a cabinet installed around the Masters Lake compressor reduced the measured sound level from 64 to 52 decibels at a midpoint between the compressor and the screen line.
