JEFFERSON COUNTY (KSNT) - A local lakes boat ramp will soon be opening after being closed for an increase of water levels.
Perry State Park announced Wednesday that the tentative plan is to reopen the boat ramps later in the week. This comes after an increase in rainfall made the lake's water levels spike nearly 12 feet above its normal levels.
After being closed for a week and a half, Perry State Park announced the floodwaters are receding, and the boat ramps are expected to be open Friday, July 19.
