Pine Lake State Park currently does not have a storage garage. This storage garage will allow the staff at Pine Lake SP to store their boats and other large equipment in a covered area as well as have a place for staff to work. There will be a 6'-0" storage loft to allow more storage in areas that are otherwise unused. The new proposed storage building will have 12'-0" overhead doors, allowing all equipment to be placed inside, lighting, better access to power and easier access to storage materials
