What are the changes to the Cass Bay Dinghy shelter?
The Council is responsible for the maintainance and administration of harbour facilities and this includes maintainance of the Cass Bay Dinghy Shelter.
Due to the longstanding informal use of the foreshore and shelter and lack of records of those occupying the shelter, it is becoming increasingly difficult for the Council to maintain the area and storage shelter.
It appears that some dinghies in the shelter have been abandoned and there are a number of dinghies that are stored on the foreshore, some which are tied up to warratahs and others attached to the outside of the shelter.
In order to formalise the storage arrangements, the Council will be issuing a Deed of Licence to Occupy the Dinghy Shelter and carry out regular inspections of the shelter and foreshore.
The Deed of Licence will become effective on 1 December 2007 (a fee for this will be assessed in 2008/2009 year).
Under the provisions of the Banks Peninsula District Marine Facilities Control Bylaw 2002, the Council has the authority to remove vessels that are abandoned, derelict or illegally stored on the foreshore areas. "Vessels removed will be released to the owner on payment to the Council of the reasonable costs of the removal" Vessels will be stored for three months only.
Any requests for maintenance to the shelter or nearby slipway should be forwarded to the Council.
