Costs mount in effort to save Wisconsin recreational spot SCOTT WILLIAMS, Racine Journal Times July 18, 2021 FacebookTwitterEmail BURLINGTON, Wis. (AP) The cost of saving Echo Lake has climbed into the millions, stirring a debate about whether the popular but deteriorated recreational spot is worth the investment. Burlington faces a 2025 deadline to address a state determination that the dam on Echo Lake is no longer adequate to safeguard against the potential catastrophe of a major flood. The city’s choices come down to either making a substantial investment in upgrading the dam and improving the lake or removing the dam and letting the reservoir vanish into the natural flow of the White River.
