The Schroon Lake Park District, Schroon Lake Association, East Shore Schroon Lake AssoSLPD and SLAciation, and the Towns of Schroon, Horicon, and Chester, have all received multiple complaints from residents during periods of high water. It has been noted that water levels in Schroon Lake rise significantly during periods of wet weather and the lake is slow to return normal levels as the wet weather subsides. There is some evidence that the Glendale Road bridge and geomorphic conditions on the bed of the river, south of the lake, could be acting to restrict flow during high water. The Schroon Lake Park District commissioned a proposal with C.T. Male Engineering to study this section of the river as a first step to identify the problem and potential corrective actions. The cost of $75,000 for this study is more than the Park district or the towns can spend, so the Schroon Lake Association has stepped in to cover the cost of the study, with some help from the East Shore Schroon Lake Association. The river work for the study will be done in the early fall, with a report early in 2027. This first step should identify next steps to help alleviate the problem, including request for flood control grant monies.
