Eurasian Water Milfoil Study Group

The environment of Kalamazoo Lake and Harbor is vitally important for our residents, businesses, and tourist-dependent economy and the invasive Eurasian Water Milfoil has become invasive.

The Saugatuck City Council wishes to have a plan in place early in 2021 to eliminate the existing pods and mitigate the spread of this invasive species.

The City Council authorized the appointment of a Eurasian Water Milfoil Advisory Committee to review the existing documentation, consult with appropriate agencies and experts, identify costs, and to ultimately report the committees’ recommendations to the Saugatuck City Council on or before their regular meeting of February 8, 2021.
