In mid-October, the aerator compressor in the Hidden Lakes main pond stopped functioning. City Public Works staff promptly identified the issue, notified the installer, and ordered a replacement, which is still under warranty. 

In the interim, Public Works has installed a temporary compressor to support the pond’s underwater aerators. In addition, crews are performing daily monitoring. There have been no significant impacts on the fish or wildlife in and around the pond. The City remains committed to maintaining the health of the pond and will update when the new permanent compressor is installed.  An odor may be noticeable around the pond until the new permanent compressor is installed.
