The Town of Windsor is taking precautionary measures by closing access to Windsor Lake until further notice due to harmful algae blooms confirmed by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. This means that recreational activities on the lake such as tubing and water skiing will be restricted starting on July 3rd. However, annual motorized permit holders are still permitted on the lake during the closure, while non-motorized boaters may use their permits at their own risk, but it is highly recommended to stay out of the water.
The decision to close the lake was prompted by further testing, despite hopes of improved water quality for the Fourth of July holiday. In efforts to combat harmful algae blooms, the town introduced four new LG Sonic MPC-Buoys on Windsor Lake in May. These buoys utilize ultrasonic waves to disrupt the algae, ultimately inhibiting its growth by depriving it of the necessary sunlight.
Director of Parks, Recreation, & Culture Tara Fotsch stated that “We prioritize public safety and environmental conservation in all our decisions”. Certain amenities at Boardwalk Park, including the swim beach, dog park, and watercraft rentals, will also be closed in light of these developments.
