The Marina Advisory Committee provides ongoing oversight of capital improvement projects affecting marina facilities and infrastructure. These regular updates ensure community input on planned enhancements and their implementation.
Mar 2: Mr. Atwood advised L, A, and B piers opened for full capacity on February 20th. Piers C and D should be completed by mid-March and open by the beginning of April.

The haul out and office construction low bid came in over the amount of funding available, so Mr. Atwood is looking to take leftover funding from other projects to cover that difference. The contract should go to council for approval in late April or early May. SR Trident has installed most of the decking for the Peoples St boardwalk and has a projected completion date of March 27th. The marina office will follow up with past inquiries about tour boats.
