Agree with Dleg, also ...

If it's silting up that fast, sounds like some area upstream has been disturbed and is causing the problem. I've seen folks here have some success with getting upstream polluters to come and dredge out their mess. You could also sniff around and find out if they have a stormwater pollution prevention plan for their construction site(s).

One way to keep plants & stuff from growing in one is to make sure that all areas are at least 3 feet deep.

The pond guy should be able to help you eradicate the lily plants. The reservoir here has a massive spray program to control those things.
