Notice to Residents – Hydro-Raking Project at Upper Sylvan Lake

 

On or about September 22nd, the Township will begin a hydro-raking project at Upper Sylvan Lake (The Swim Lake).

 

  • Purpose: To remove organic material, vegetation, and muck that has built up along the shoreline and lake bottom through the natural aging process.
  • Important Note: This is NOT a dredging project.
  • Process: Material removed will be de-watered and transported off-site.
  • Timeline: The project is expected to take about 30 days.
  • Impact: Temporary access restrictions to the boat launch may occur.

 

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we continue working to improve and maintain our recreational facilities for the community.
