Deltona, FL - The Lake Monroe Boat Launch on Lakeshore Dr. in Deltona will close after the first of the year for about 18 months. The shutdown date is January 3, 2022, with a reopen date expected of June 2023.
The closure is part of the Lake Monroe Project and is necessary for the construction of the Alexander Avenue Reclaimed Water Augmentation Project.
The city of Deltona is collaborating with the St Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) on the project that will withdraw up to 12 million gallons of surface water per day
from Lake Monroe (the St. Johns River) for the purpose of providing treated water to recharge the aquifer and increasing flows at Blue Springs in Orange City.
Boaters are encouraged to use the Mariner’s Cove Park boat ramp at 1199 Enterprise-
Osteen Road. Admission to the park is free and it is open daily from sunrise to sunset.
