Community works together to save neighborhood lake

After years of sitting in limbo, a significant restoration plan is in place for one St. Pete Lake, thanks to the local community. For the past few years, the non-profit organization, Stewards of Our Urban Lakes has been helping local communities like Jungle Terrace Civic Organization transform their favorite waterways from a problem into a success. “By not having a decent plant cover or thick plant cover what you get is algae growing,” said Jim Bays, with Stewards of Our Urban Lakes, referring to Jungle Lake.
