Pump to be installed at Fountain City Lake to prevent algae growth

In the next few weeks, crews will begin installing a new pump system at the Fountain City Lake in North Knoxville.

Tuesday, the Knoxville City Council approved a $90,000 dollar contract for the work. It is the third phase of the project that began about two years ago.

Last fall, crews repaired a leak at the lake and later refilled it.

City leaders said the new pump and pipes will help the water flow and prevent algae growth.
