FAST TIMES AT CORDRY/SWEETWATER

At the Tuesday CSCD Meeting, the topic of the yellow light times was "fine tuned." The Green light will turn on at 10:00 AM as in the past years. At the end of the day the Yellow light will turn on at 8:00 PM each day during the summer. Rather than the "hour before sunset" rule that has been practiced in the past. This rule will allow approximately the same amount of time for speed boating times but give a uniform time for the evening yellow light throughout the summer months. In other business, contracts for Cordry Lake dredging and boat ramp construction were awarded.
