The dam at Woodside Lake in Austintown is being demolished to eliminate a safety issue. When removed, the surrounding property owners will no longer have lakefront property but will have yards leading down to a creek.
It's too bad that the owner of the dam would not repair it.
I sure hope something could be done to restore the dam.

A new problem for the neighbors
The contractor clearing the land just left piles of trees and brush and does not appear to be coming back to remove the them.
