One goal from the recent Gainesville Public Utilities Workshop is to resolve the status of Cedar Creek Reservoir, which had been a source of dispute between the city and Hall County on the ownership of the water and infrastructure on the site. The 141-acre lake off Timber Ridge Road in East Hall County has been on a back burner since the U.S. Supreme Court last year refused to hear an appeal to the 2011 11th Circuit Court of Appeals ruling that water supply was an originally intended authorized use of Lake Lanier, reversing an earlier decision in the tri-state water wars. However, interviews with officials in both Gainesville and Hall County say their positions on the 2006 agreement governing the ownership and operation of the reservoir remain unchanged.
