Raw Water

The City of Roxboro has two drinking water supply lakes, Lake Issac Walton and Lake Roxboro. Lake Issac Walton was constructed in 1924 and enlarged to its present size in 1954 when the current water plant was built. In 1978, Lake Roxboro was constructed. Together the lakes can provide over 11 millions gallons of water. Roxboro has a Lake Warden who patrols the two lakes to enforce the lake ordinances.

This department includes the Lake Warden, who has the primary responsibility of overseeing the activities on Lake Roxboro. In doing so, this individual assures that lake residents have the proper dock, boat and ramp permits. This person also insures that the rules and regulations are followed.

For questions concerning Lake usage including permits and access, contact the Lake Warden:
