Parrish, City Clerk APPROVED AS TO FORM: Craig Miller, City At o� rney PUB SHED: c /9 V/ MAY i O. 4CD 641404443/ MEMO: July 15, 1981 TO: Mayor, City Council, City Manager FROM: Don Frizzell, Director of Parks and Recreation 1). RE: Consideration to Establish a Procedure,in Rental Fee for Large Boat, Ship, and Vessel at the City Pier Waterfront.. Facility. Throughout late spring and summer we have experienced both inquiries and have been asked for permission to moor at the Pier some larger boats and vessels when the Coast Guard cutter is at sea. For the most part these situations have resulted from either weather or mechanical failures forcing the craft to moorage. As the Pier becomes more apparent I am sure this type of request will increase. On a few occasions the boats have been directed to the Pier by the Coast Guard. In light of this situation I therefore ask your consideration of an ordinance which would provide both a procedure for moorage arrange- ments and a moorage fee. In reviewing the other State facilities such as ours I have found, without exception, the other agencies do provide some form of moorage but all charge as well. Therefore please find the drafted ordinance for your review and consideration. The proposed fees are comparable but below other locations. Thank you for your time and consideration. DF /dp
