Will Lake George be put back together again?

Big news came out of this week's Marion City Council meeting as town leaders vote to determine the long-term fate of Lake George.

The lake has been about half full since it was purposely breached more almost two years ago out of safety concerns. An ongoing construction project there will stabilize the lake's levee for about five years so Marion can temporarily continue to draw raw water from it.

Many questions had surrounded its long-term fate until council members decided this week on a deliberate path forward. 

Find out all of the details in this week's full edition of The Crittenden Press, which will be on newsstands about noon today.
