DEPUTY COMMISSIONERS' REPORT REGARDING STATUS OF LAKE
Current Condition of Lake/Bay, Water Levels, Plant Growth, Fish and Wildlife.
Greg Burmeister, Deputy Commissioner, W146 S9505 Groveway Lane. There are a lot of
weeds in the lake. A lot of the lake has buds of milfoil. As for the traffic, if you stay in the lanes
you can get around the lake, but what appears to be the green parts of the lake are thick and
could cause issues. Water level is low in a major draught, no water going over the dam and the
gate is closed. For the wildlife, there are two towers holding osprey with four adults and seven
young. Cameras are on both towers and through the City website you can view some activity.
One nest has a peculiar activity in that the adults are bringing goldfish back to feed the young.
For the eagles, the young appear to be flying. There was a kayak trip through the recreation
department and there were 29 boats for the tour. If promoted more, there would be many
people.
K
Alderman Kubacki asked the situation with the starry wart. Deputy Commissioner Burmeister
said that it was in the lake, but not much of a problem. The milfoil is the issue that can get very
thick.
Alderman Kubacki asked if they did clean boats/clean waters. Deputy Commissioner Burmeister
responded that there are no boats observing or enforcing the restrictions with clean boats/clean
waters.
