Summary

City Administrator Dan Madsen presented draft amendments to the Marina Ordinance to clarify the definition of the boating season and when dock slip entitlement requires residency; council discussion focused on the residency date that would determine entitlement and refund timing, and no action was taken.

City Administrator and Special Counsel Dan Madsen presented an initial draft amendment to the municipal Marina Ordinance to clarify two elements: the definition of the “boating season” and the residency requirement for dock slip entitlement at Deephaven’s municipal marinas.

Council discussion focused on the residency requirement—specifically, what date a property owner must be a resident during the boating season to retain their dock slip and before which date a payment would be refunded and the slip transferred to the next person on the wait list. The transcript records that the discussion centered on that residency date but does not record a specific date selection or additional ordinance text.

No formal action was taken; the item was informational and will return for further consideration when staff prepares a formal ordinance amendment for council review.
