Agenda Packet

Island Lake has a surface area of approximately 110 acres, a maximum depth of 41 feet, and a mean or average depth of 4.1 feet. The lake contains about 442 acre-feet of water, which equates to 144 million gallons. The lake has a shoreline about 2.6 miles long. The majority of the 222-acre Island Lake watershed is urbanized. Water drains to Island Lake via several inlets. The largest of which enters from the south end of the lake. Island Lake’s outlet flows into Lower Long Lake, Forest Lake, the Rouge River and on to the Detroit River.

Lake Board Information

At the request of residents, a Lake Improvement Board was convened for Island Lake in 1983. The Lake Improvement Board was established as a mechanism to address apparent water quality concerns within the lake. Later that year, the Island Lake Improvement Board began a study to quantify the water quality issues impacting Island Lake and determine what actions, if any, were required to correct these issues. For more information regarding this study and for Lake Board assessment information, follow the links below.
