Monticello Plans Restoration of Mill Pond After Sediment Build-Up
Monticello officials consider restoring Lake Staedtler and Monticello’s mill pond once used for power and milling. An engineer could be hired to assess a 40 acre site once deep enough for a motor boat, now filled with silt and seasonally dry except for a central channel. The pond’s history traces to founder Oran Bacon and later owners, with the village later acquiring it and building a village hall on the site.
