History of the
district....
The Fish Lake Conservancy District was formed
after two engineering reports indicated that Fish Lake and its
watershed needed specialized attention due to increased
eutrophication. The cost of this specialized attention made it
impossible for the two main organizations (Fish Lake Property Owners
Association and The Conservation Club) to fund. Creation of the
District was the culmination of years of effort by many community
members and organization leaders. The Conservancy District has
received generous donations and volunteer support from both
organizations to reduce the tax burden on the freeholders of the
district. The district has also received state grants to help fund
both sediment trap dredging and aquatic vegetation control. The
Conservancy District wishes to extend a hearty 'thank you' to all
who have donated their time and effort.
