Stay out of the water at Lakeside Park.
The city issued a statement Friday afternoon that said water at the park’s beach is currently exceeding Health Canada’s bacterial count guidelines.
Lakeside Park shutdowns have been a semi-regular occurrence in recent years.
E. Coli levels closed the beach in 2016, and last year an oil spill at the nearby boat launch forced a weeklong closure.
The city’s statement said further questions can be directed to the Public Works department at 250-352-8238 or publicworks@nelson.ca.
