City and LOPD Named Non-Profit of the Year: Last month, the City of Lake Ozark and Lake Ozark Police Department were honored to be named the 2025 Lake Area Chamber of Commerce Non-Profit of the Year.Over 200 lake area business owners and community members were present to vote on this award and others, and we are grateful for the recognition given by the community we serve. Of this award, City Administrator Harrison Fry stated, "This is the result of years' worth of intentional effort to continue finding ways to better serve our community and the folks who come visit every year. Through the summer, the men and women of LOPD have a tough task in front of them but they are supported every step of the way by our mayor and aldermen, and the members of this community we call home."

TEST TW WEATHER

Micropaving Project Underway

Over thepast two weeks, residents may have noticed workers from Vance Brothers Construction applying slurry seal and micropaving treatments to roads within their neighborhoods.
 
This project is intended to provide a new driving surface for roadways throughout the community, and will extend the life of these roads for several years. This treatment is typically applied on lower-traffic residential streets.
Funded by a mix of funds received through a local ARPA allocation and the use tax reserve approved by voters in 2020, roadways were selected based on a current state of low to moderate distress and minimal cracking.

As the 2023 micropaving project continues, city staff would like to advise members of the public living or driving on the streets being treated that they should wait until contractors remove “road closed” signs before attempting to use drive lanes.  Sharp turns of wheels from a stopped position, like you may perform when backing out of a driveway, can have a great impact on road surfaces that have not yet cured.

As city staff and the project contractor continue to move forward with this project, we ask that any personal property damages that may occur, or inconsistencies in road surfacing, be shared with Public Works Director Michalik by email at pwd@cityoflakeozark.net.  

Staff has been made aware of a number of small areas that need to be revisited, as well as larger stretches of Arrowhead Drive and Cherry Hill Lane.  The contractor has provided assurance these issues will be resolved.
