At the last Parks and Rec. meeting a member of the committee asked Jason Parks, head of Langford’s Parks Department, whether Jason had had been contacted by the Ministry of Environment about the Langford Lake aerator. Mr. Parks did acknowledge that he had received a call, and that the Provincial Ministry of Environment reportedly believed the Langford Lake aerator may not be doing anything and wanted to test this theory by turning it off for a year. A year later they would assess if they needed to buy a new aerator or not depending on the results of the test. Some committee members expressed concern and requested more information, and Monday night’s agenda has a presentation on the issue from Scott Silvestri and Peter Law from the Ministry of Environment. The name of the presentation suggests the issue has expanded to include the Glen Lake aerator. A staff report on the issue is available in the agenda package, for those who want to bring themselves up to speed on the issue before the meeting.
