Update from Parks Maintenance staff: we have referred this request to the Stormwater Department, as they maintain vegetation in/around bodies of water - a supervisor there let us know they will have staff out to spray next week, weather permitting. Thank you for the report.

I'm sorry but my issue was not with spraying for mosquitos. Was my submission even read? As I stated earlier, "...The inside of the lake is dreadful. So much grass and guck has grown underneath in the water that the fish, turtles, birds are being suffocated. The water is green (algae overgrowth) but the grass inside the lake is protruding through the water. Every year it is getting worse and more disgusting. Please help? I don't know if it is feasible but I think the lake/pond needs to be dredged and totally cleaned inside..."

I don't have an issue with the maintenance "outside the lake/pond"! He is a good guy and a hard worker and I hope that is not how my submission came across?

My issue is INSIDE the lake/pond.
