City recovering from ice, snow storm

The City of Lake Park continues to cleanup following an ice storm that put up to 1/2" of ice on trees and power lines, then was followed by 4 inches of heavy, wet snow. Tree branches are down all over the community and in some cases, whole trees were downed as a result of the extra weight of the ice and snow. Crews with Lake Park Municipal Utilities have been working non-stop since Tuesday repairing lines that were brought down by falling branches. LPMU's power generation system has been used as well during the storm. City crews and residents are continuing the cleanup process.
