CLEARLAKE – Community members are invited to attend a Monday town hall to discuss concerns and potential impacts to the local economy resulting from the problems that have arisen with blue green algae in Clear Lake in recent weeks.

The gathering will take place from 5:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. Monday, July 6, at Clearlake City Hall, 14050 Olympic Drive.

Clearlake City Council members Joyce Overton and Dian Gibson, owner of Sunset Fishing Resort, have called the Monday meeting.

Gibson hosted a meeting at her resort this past Tuesday where business owners and residents were able to air their concerns, including negative impacts on the area's tourism.

The Monday meeting will feature informational presentations by environmental and water professions, who also will be able to answer questions.

There also will the opportunity for people to share information on what has worked for their neighborhoods.

A community volunteer program being formed also will invite new members to join.
