Ponds closed to people and pets until further notice.
Testing of the ponds in Reservoir Park indicates the presence of mycrocystins, which is linked to blue-green algae. Out of an abundance of caution, both the large and small pond at Reservoir Park have been closed to people and pets.
A dark film was also noted on the water.
There has also been a significant drop in water levels as a result of the on-going drought.
Testing will continue but the ponds will remain closed to people and pets until further notice.
