The great news is the work on the lake is to begin this coming Monday, November 10, 2008! Finally! The work that the town did on the bridge area last weekend was terrific. They weren't able to reach too far into the lake with the machinery they were using but they were able to make some progress and now we have water flowing under the bridge again.
Now for the bad news. We still are short money. We need to pay the next installment upon completion of this first phase which should be within the next 10 days. We're asking for anyone who hasn't contributed or anyone who can contribute a bit more to do so now. We need money to get us to the next phase. Please see How You Can Help for information on how you can contribute.
Wow, glad to see you guys are doing something about this problem—will check back for updates. Interesting article about the experience of other communities controlling this reed:
