Trego Lake District is a local unit of government established and operating pursuant to the authority of Wisconsin Statutes Chapter 33. It has been working to protect and rehabilitate Trego Lake since 1989.
The District has broad authority to enter contracts, purchase equipment, apply for grants, levy taxes and accept donations. Its activities have included: protection of fish, maintenance of water quality, marking navigation channels, control of weeds and aquatic invasive species, and reduction of sedimentation buildup.
The Lake District consists of the Trego flowage and lakeshore from the Highway 53 bridge on the east to the Xcel Energy dam on the west. It is the second largest lake in Washburn County.
The Annual Meeting, held every June, sets the budget, elects the Board of Commissioners, and approves projects. The Board meets quarterly to manage District business and implement decisions of the Annual Meetings. Meeting dates are on the calendar and “Meetings” page of this website. All meetings are public and held in the Trego Town Hall. Meetings may be attended in person or by Zoom.
