SHAKER HEIGHTS, Ohio — The fight to save Horseshoe Lake continues to wage on. The group Friends of Horseshoe Lake has filed separate injunctions against Shaker Heights and Cleveland Heights, the two cities that share the area where the lake is located.
According to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, that aging dam is failing, and officials ordered the cities of Cleveland Heights and Shaker Heights to begin draining the lake in 2017 and repair or replace the dam. The district plans to work with the two cities and restore the park; Eltin said they're in the final stages of the pre-design process.
Madorsky is also a part of the group opposing the district's plan. He said FOHSL worked with engineering and dam experts to develop an alternative plan that saves the lake while also addressing safety concerns but said city and district officials haven't considered their plan.
