Why Marion County needs hoa maintenance

Spring-fed systems are especially vulnerable to hydrilla, which out-competes native eelgrass. Private pond owners in Ocala's ranch country battle chronic algae and milfoil.

Marion County's freshwater character is shaped by spring-fed systems. Silver Springs and Rainbow River are first-magnitude springs with crystalline water that hydrilla has chronically threatened by displacing native eelgrass. Lake Weir and Lake Kerr — the county's two large Cellular Lakes — both face recurring milfoil and hydrilla pressure that requires mechanical-first management.
