As part of the project, lillypads and
other aquatic vegetation that have
clogged the lake will be removed and
the bottom of the lakebed cleaned of
garbage.
"The project is designed to create a
passive recreation area for the people
of Weaverville and North Buncombe
County," Home said.
"The lake had a longstanding
history of nonuse. There had been
talk for several years of draining it
and getting the lillypads out of it. Hiis

some deligence," he ntd.
Weaverville Mayor Reese Usher
suggested Monday that the engineers
look into the posaUMlty of improving
the landscaping of the current park

"All I've heard is that the parkin
is a problem," Lasher said. "We need
to window dress the present site."
Weaverville officials will announce
the new completion date later this
summer.
When finished, the lake will be
restocked with fish, Home said.

has been, and we're pretty pleased
about that."
