The water level of Pate Lake at T.W. Briscoe Park will be lowered
Monday so construction crews can begin work on repairing a portions of a crumbling lake wall.
The Dickerson Group, Inc. will begin work on the long-awaited $400,150 repair Monday, work that could last for 90 days. Since the lake level is being lowered, fishing is prohibited while the repairs are ongoing.
A bulk of the cost of the repairs is being covered by a Community Development Block Grant.
Approximately 100 feet of the stone wall is being replaced as well as a 20 to 25 foot retaining wall behind the pool area and Williams Pavilion.
Aside from the fishing moratorium, park activities and events will remain as normal during construction.
