Here is an article that was in the Sunday Dec. 7, GR Press that talks about Algae problems. It has been a big problem in the are lakes recently.
Here is a copy that was in the Muskegon Chronicle.

Though we had a short rainy season, it did bring us almost 5 inches of rain in the area. This has again caused the lake level to rise to a very high level. Please use discretion when on the lake and keep your wake to a minimum until the water level goes down.Remember, things could always be worse. Kalamazoo area got over 9 inches of rain and the Gulf Coast is in need of our prayers and support.
Also, the news article below is a good warning to keep an eye on the red light on top of the lift station at the corner of 16th and Ponstein. (Notify the township if you ever see the light on!)
