| Can someone explain why we are spending valuable tax dollars to kill vegetation in the lake that is going to cost 5 million $ to dredge of the toxic sediments? It seems like the only benefit is to the herbicide application company---------- |

From TC minutes the lake sediment is not toxic. The pollutants are actually minimal.
If you do not treat the lake now then more growth occurs creating more sediment and it is more expensive to dredge. |
