Lake districts report boundary additions, diver program growth and new equipment purchases
Summary
Lake Nokomis expanded boundaries to add about 114 parcels and adopted a wake‑boat resolution; Squash Lake purchased oxygen‑tank trailer and reported paying divers about $42 per hour, while Crescent and other lakes discussed diver availability, water clarity, and extended milfoil growth into fall.
Chris Schultz reported that Lake Nokomis expanded its boundaries to include roughly 114 parcels that have lake access but were not previously paying Lake District fees and that the district adopted a wake‑boat resolution consistent with neighboring municipalities. Discussion among committee members addressed aquatic invasive species control, especially hand‑pulling Eurasian watermilfoil, with participants noting that water clarity affects diver effectiveness.
Linnaea Newman described Squash Lake’s investments in diver equipment and procedures, including purchase of a trailer to transport 40 oxygen tanks and a dive boat adapted for milfoil removal; she said divers are paid about $42 per hour and expected to continue operations through September. Collette Sorgel reported Thunder Lake’s annual picnic and follow‑up meeting items.
