The
Lagoon is ready for summer season!
Remember:
Lagoon pollution can be at its highest level
immediately following a storm when pollutants are
washed into the lagoon from storm drains. Therefore,
contact with lagoon water should be avoided for at
least 72 hours after a rain.

points to consider from our City Engineer

Lagoon
Water Quality Testing & Important Reminders
The
BLPOA has water quality tests performed on a regular
basis. If required, efforts will be made by flushing and
debris removal to maintain water quality.
Please
keep your plants and shrubs trimmed back out of the
lagoon. Plant overgrowth increases the need for chemical
application and increases the BLPOA's operating
expenses.
Belvedere
Municipal Code 8.20 prohibits ANYTHING from entering the
storm drains, other than clear water, as they empty
directly into the lagoon!
Please
do not pollute the lagoon with contaminants such as
animal waste, herbicides, pesticides, or excess
fertilizer. Make sure your landscapers are informed!
Please
use a vacuum sander when refinishing your deck to
prevent debris from entering the lagoon.
For
the safety of all swimmers and boaters, please do not
leave unmanned fishing lines in the lagoon.
The
use of bird feeders or feeding the birds anywhere near
the lagoon contributes significantly to algae growth,
creates problems with lagoon water quality, as well as
disrupts the birds' migration patterns. Therefore, we
request you REFRAIN from feeding birds altogether in and
around the lagoon. Also, please do not dispose of animal
waste in the lagoon.
