Lagoon Road Work
Council requested and received a report on infrastructure maintenance in the Village. One of the recommendations was to create an open area for about 30 meters east of the lagoon road. This would allow for the road to drain and dry faster, thereby reducing ongoing maintenance costs. A second benefit is that it provides a fire break.

Flowering Rush
Flowering Rush is a prohibited, noxious weed that has been introduced into several Alberta water bodies. It is an aquatic plant that grows as an emergent plant along shorelines of both lakes and rivers. Flowering Rush was brought to North America from Europe as a garden plant. This variety will form dense stands which will interfere with recreational lake use. Flowering Rush crowds out our native plants and has the potential to fill in an entire lake if left uncontrolled.
