Lake Truesdale residents — you may have heard talk about a new proposed project: Hydro Dredging.
Project leader Cliff Munz along with several other lake residents have been putting their heads together these past several months. There has been one lake-wide meeting (June 15, 2017) so far — and more to come.
In the meantime, we have put together a summary of the project at the Hydro Dredging Project Page. Please read through it when you have a chance.
