Projects
The District has completed major projects that have impacted Spring Lake. The construction of a 70 acre Storm Water Treatment Area that also includes the ECO Park amenities; $1 million renovations and upgrades to the pump station; construction of a $3.2 million waste water treatment plant; and the construction of a modern dog park that we call a Bark Park. Additionally, three bathrooms have been installed at the ECO, Bark, and Pine Breeze Parks, and a second water plant is now operational. In the last 10 years the District has secured over $17 million for these and several future projects. A major Parks Master Plan has been approved by the Board and can be viewed on this site
