I was going to buy a boat if I got a dock. But the rules make it impossible to apply if you don't already own a boat. Why is that???
ReplyDeleteWill the Dock Drawing itself be open to the public?
ReplyDeleteYes the drawing is open to the public.
ReplyDeletePer the web site info by ODNR “Drawing is to be held at Catawba Island State Park, 4049 E. Moores Dock Rd., Port Clinton, OH 43452, on March 5, 2009, at 6:00 p.m • Winners need not be present at the time of the lottery to win.”
If all 35 applicants are going to get a slip, how will the staggered lease expirations be handled? The logical thing would be for ODNR to give everyone 3, 4 or 5-year leases, since those who apply later can be given the shorter-term 1 and 2-year leases. This would also help the islanders who make up most of the current applicants by far.
ReplyDeleteODNR's staggering requirements can be met best by giving the first applicants all the longer leases. But is this what they are going to do?
