Wake Enhancement Ordinance

It has been brought to the attention of the Eagle Spring Lake Management District (ESLMD) that more and more local lakes are incorporating a wake enhancement ordinance as part of their lake ordinances.  The Town of Palmyra has just passed an ordinance to protect their lakes. 

In efforts to be proactive, rather than reactive, the ESLMD is asking the Town of Eagle to please consider a simular ordinance that would help protect Eagle Spring Lake from wake enhancement equipment being used on the Lake.  

This has been on the Eagle Spring Lake agenda since February 2025 and for those of you who would like to know a little more about it, here are a few links that you may find interesting.
