The Town of Windsor is taking precautionary measures to address the issue of harmful algae blooms in Windsor Lake. As a result, access to the lake has been closed until further notice, effective from July 3rd. Recreational activities such as tubing and water skiing will be restricted, but annual motorized permit holders are still allowed on the lake. Non-motorized boaters may use their permits at their own risk, but it is recommended to stay out of the water. Certain amenities at Boardwalk Park, including the swim beach, dog park, and watercraft rentals, have also been closed.
Director of Parks, Recreation, & Culture Tara Fotsch stated that despite hopes of improved water quality for the Fourth of July holiday, further testing prompted the decision to close the lake according to protocol. In May, the town introduced four new LG Sonic MPC-Buoys on Windsor Lake to combat harmful algae blooms. These buoys utilize ultrasonic waves to disrupt the algae and ultimately inhibit its growth by depriving it of necessary sunlight.
The Town of Windsor is prioritizing public safety and environmental conservation by implementing these restrictions and initiatives to address the issue of harmful algae blooms in Windsor Lake.
