The State Park's management afforded the construction of water and sewer lines in 1990, enabling real estate in the area to become more valuable, particularly in the northeast part of the lake. From 2005 – 2007 an additional investment of $ 20 million for water and sewer projects, expanded such amenities to a much larger portion of the lake and eliminated lake contaminants along with it. Longtime Milton Township zoning inspector Michael Kurilla Jr. cited that lakefront lots once worth $ 150,000 - $ 175,000 in 2013 were selling for $ 525,000 by 2020. Jeff Uroseva, chief building official for Mahoning County shared that residential construction in Milton Township has risen from 5 permits in 2016 to 15 permits in 2020.

No wake zones are established along the perimeter of the lake, in the zone between the two bridges, and in the narrow southern end of the lake, commonly referred to as "the river". The dam is at the north end of the lake. The southern end ultimately connects to Berlin Lake although it is not possible to take a power watercraft through this route.

This increased awareness and need for flood control jump started the construction of the Lake Milton dam later that year. Completed in 1917, the newly constructed 2,800-foot (850 m) dam created 1,640 acres (660 ha) of what is now known as Lake Milton.

Mahoning Ave bridge. It is also a stringer bridge like Delucia but much shorter at just 832 feet (254 m) across five spans. It was originally built in 1915 and reconstructed in 1991. The third bridge is Ellsworth Road going over the very southern end of the lake.

over the lake, many people refer to it as such but its name is the Peter J. Delucia
Memorial Bridge. It is so named as Peter Delucia was working on the bridge during its reconstruction in 2003 when he was electrocuted. The stringer bridge has 18 spans for a length of 2,095 feet (639 m) and was

The lake itself is a relatively shallow lake, with its deepest point being approximately 33 feet (10 m) deep, near the dam. Most of the lake has a depth of 12 to 15 feet (3.7 to 4.6 m). There is a small uninhabited island on the southeast portion of the lake that is a common spot for
