LAKE WINGRA
WINTER SALT WORKING GROUP
Meetings:
Lake Wingra is the saltiest lake in the Madison area—due to years of excessive winter salt use. While salt keeps sidewalks safe, over-application has long-term impacts on water quality.
To address this issue, we’re forming a Lake Wingra Winter Salt Working Group to brainstorm practical, community-driven ways to reduce salt use by winter maintenance contractors at businesses and apartment buildings.
If you’re interested in water quality, winter maintenance practices, or local policy—and want to be part of shaping realistic solutions—we invite you to join us.
October 20, 6 pm – 7 pm, Barriques on Monroe Street – backroom
