City offers support for saving Meadow Lake, Nolte Dam Darren Dunn
(Seguin) -- The city of Seguin wants to be part of the solution to save Meadow Lake. The Seguin City Council on Tuesday reached a consensus to allow staff to proceed with assisting the Meadow Lake Nolte Dam Association with its efforts to reach an agreement with GBRA to allow repairs to be made to the dam. It was almost exactly four years ago that the dam failed on Lake Dunlap, which set off a series of reactions designed to figure out a way to work with GBRA to preserve all of the hydroelectric lakes along the Guadalupe River. Since that time, water control improvement districts (WCID) were formed along lakes Dunlap, McQueeney, and Placid. All three have reached agreements with GBRA to
repair those dams. Meadow Lake also has a WCID, but what they don’t have is the high density of property owners along the lake. There are roughly 120 homeowners on Meadow Lake, which makes it more difficult for them to reach a solution for the dam repair and future maintenance. The council’s support for their work further supports the work already done by city staff. City Manager Steve Parker has been a big part of the discussions between the folks on Meadow Lake and GBRA. Parker says he wanted the council to offer a clear direction to staff, because the city may need to spend a little bit of money to help this process continue to move forward. Support, pg. 3
