Town Administrator Vicky Rinkerman told the Port Deposit Town Council on May 5 that the town submitted a $2.6 million Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) grant application to support Marina Park construction.
Public Works and Code Administrator Dan Jamison reported seasonal maintenance work and said Marina Park pier repairs are underway. Jamison also noted the boat launch dock is deteriorating and may need replacement; staff estimated a full replacement at approximately $16,500 and said they will continue to evaluate repair timing, parts and potential grant funding.
Rinkerman listed several other infrastructure items under review, including the 43 S. Main Street stormwater project and rebid documents for the Rock Run embankment project. The minutes show the town is coordinating grant and rebid schedules alongside maintenance activities.
The council also announced the 20th Annual Rockfish Tournament, scheduled for June 6, 2026, at Marina Park. The minutes record routine operational updates and grant-seeking as the primary next steps for marina-related work.
