City Participates in Job Fair

Boat Ramp Closing For Construction: The City of Lake Ozark announces the temporary closure of the public boat launch located on Bluebird Drive to allow for demolition and reconstruction of the boat ramp. The closure will be in effect from January 12, 2026, through February 16, 2026, weather permitting. Hardrives Excavation LLC will perform the reconstruction work during this period. The ramp area will reopen to the public once all work has been completed and safety inspections are finalized. The upgraded boat ramp will feature significant improvements designed to better serve the boating community. The new ramp will be four feet wider and 13 feet longer than the current facility, providing enhanced access and maneuverability for boaters. Additionally, the concrete slab will be constructed with increased thickness to ensure greater durability and extend the lifespan of the ramp well beyond that of the current structure. "We appreciate all of the work everyone has done to help these upgrades come to fruition," said Mayor David Ridgely. "Our hope is that the new public boat ramp will be a great community asset for years to come." Winter weather conditions may affect the construction schedule. The City will provide updates on the project timeline as needed. Boaters are encouraged to plan accordingly and seek alternative launch facilities during the closure period. For questions regarding the project or alternative boat launch locations, please contact Matt Michalik, Public Works Director, at (573) 365-5378 or pwd@cityoflakeozark.net.

On March 22, representatives from the City of Lake Ozark attended a lake area job fair in an effort to bring new talent to City Hall.

Advertising open full-time and part-time positions in our Police, Police Dispatch, and Public Works departments, various city staff members are engaging with the public to discuss the benefits of working in local government and how to make a career change towards public service.

This event will be the first of several this year where the City of Lake Ozark reaches out to the community at large to help fill some of our critical positions.
