Local residents have been invited to a public meeting to find out more about the maintenance work at Abbey Fields lake.
Representatives of Warwick District Council will attend the meeting on Saturday, March 4.
The council came under fire last summer for its response to the lake drying up during the heatwave.
Local volunteers took it upon themselves to keep the lake aerated and eventually move hundreds of fish to Lavender Hall Fishery in Balsall Common.
Deputy leader of the council Cllr Richard Hales, who was praised for his work supporting the volunteers, said: "Following last summer's drought and rehoming of the fish, we feel that it is important to give an update on the lake to all partners and interest groups in the community and also to listen to their views.
"We warmly encourage local people to come along."
Those wishing to attend should meet at 10am in the Abbey Fields car park.
The council said after the episode last summer it would do what it could to make sure there was no repeat this year.
