Lake Improvement Projects to be Completed this Fall

Central has committed significant effort recently to complete projects that will enhance recreational opportunities at our facilities. Central is investing a sizable amount of funds to construct a new boat ramp near Medo’s Resort in the Bullhead Point area at Johnson Lake. Working with a contractor, dirt work began by District employees the second week of September and construction was finalized the first week of October to get the new boat ramp open to the public.

This ramp will close out a very productive year of construction in the area. This past winter, new dikes and shore work was completed near Medo’s. A new layer of rock was installed over the new dikes.

In addition to the ramp at Johnson Lake, a new boat ramp is also being constructed at Phillips Lake. A new road was built to provide better access to the recreation area for users and Central is working with the Nebraska Game & Parks Commission to complete the project.
