Beschreibung
There is a serious water hazard in the large lake in New Town. It's the top of a extremely large tree that was not completely removed when the lake was developed. Usually it's about 2-4 inches below the surface, although it's occasionally visible. When it's lurking just underwater it's a hazard for kayakers, canoes, and swimmers (all of which can involve innocent children). According to state NID statutes this is a public use lake; therefore, the obstruction must be clearly marked with the prescribed federal inland waterway identifications.

Yes, this issue can be closed, for at least the city is aware of the imminent danger.
If the city gave a developer permission to build a lake with the large stump of an enormous tree lurking at surface level, that obviously can't be undone; however, the present day issue involves public safety.
The Missouri language on Neighborhood Improvement Districts is clear. First,"Projects funded through a NID must be public in nature". Second, NIDs can be used to establish public use facilities for the enjoyment, convenience, SAFETY [emphasis added], and common good of ALL [emphasis added] citizens". Accordingly, the city should have some shared responsibility for the established NID.
If the danger is not removed, in the interest of public safety the city should at least post a proper warning of its existence.
Perhaps this issue should have been addressed by the city's Department of Community Development.
