Improvements Underway

One of the provisions of renovating St. Ferdinald Park Lake is to remove years of sediment that will result in a deeper lake in the center with new oxygenation systems. Work was being done on the lake over the first January weekend. Included will also be two new, lighted fountains to help provide a healthier aquatic environment and prevent summer fish kill episodes. Florissant officials anticipate the work will be completed by spring so the lake can be restocked with fish in time for summer and the summer concert series. ~Bob Lindsey photo — One of the provisions of renovating St. Ferdinald Park Lake is to remove years of sediment that will result in a deeper lake in the center with new oxygenation systems.

According to Cheryl Thompson, Florissant City Official, “St. Ferdinand Lake has been dredge and planting beds should be completed soon. An upgraded electrical service will be installed to power two new fountains and to upgrade the waterfall. The city will be refilling the lake soon at which time the fountains and waterfall will be in operation. Planting of beds will be done this spring to enhance the oxygenation, which will create a better lake environment. ~Bob Lindsey photo — According to Cheryl Thompson, Florissant City Official, “St. Ferdinand Lake has been dredge and planting beds should be completed soon.
