Lake Executive Summary The 1000-acre Carroll County recreation lake
project is moving even closer to becoming a reality.
Construction on the 2400 ft. long dam is now complete, and three
wells are currently pumping water into the lake. Already over
380,000 bluegill, bass, bream, red ear, and catfish have been
released into the retention ponds. Fishing will be permitted one
year after the opening of lake. The lake is expected to be
filled with water in April of 2012. Work is also complete on the
Administrative Headquarters, a Carroll County Watershed project
that has restored an old home to its natural beauty. Picnic and
swimming areas will also be developed in the coming months.
