About Trego Lake District

Trego Lake District is a local unit of government with responsibility for the protection and rehabilitation of Trego Lake. Since 1989 Trego Lake District has been working to improve the lake and water quality.

As a unit of goverment, the District has authority to enter contracts, purchase equipment, apply for grants, levy taxes and accept donations. Its activities include: 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 between Annual Meetings. Meeting dates are on the calendar page of this website. All meetings are public and held in the Trego Town Hall. Meetings may be attended in person or by Zoom. Information to attend by Zoom is on the Meeting Notice (in the “Meetings” section of this website).
