Anyone wanting to maintain their position on these lists must return the request for docking provided with the dues packet on or before April 1st. Failure to return this information will result in removal from the docking lists and moving those property owners listed for lesser years upward on the list.
 
    1.    Boat lifts without canopies can be used in slips with prior approval of the office. Boat lift canopies must have the approval of the Board (7/2009). All boat lifts and/or canopies must be maintained in good condition by the property owner. If lifts and/or canopies are not maintained in good condition, the LMPOA has the right to request that the lift be removed at the Board of Director’s discretion. Failure to comply with the Board’s request within 15 days will result in the LMPOA taking ownership of the slip (property owner losing the slip), removing the lift and billing the property owner accordingly.
 
    1.    Due to various reasons, boatlifts are not permitted in some docking areas. Remember, you have permission prior to installing a boatlift at an Association owned dock.
 
    1.    The quantity of slips registered to a property owner will be based on the number of master lots that the property owner owns that are not tied together. For every master lot that is owned and the full annual dues paid, one slip can be assigned. Based on slip availability, the multiple master lot owner will have to put their name on the waiting list. Each slip will be required to pay an annual lease fee and a boat sticker fee.
 
    ◦         10. If a property owner is assigned a dock and does not own a boat at that time, they still will be required to purchase a boat sticker. 

    ◦         11. Any property owner that currently is registered for more than one slip and does not own multiple master lots will be grandfathered until they do not remain in good standing within the LMPOA, or they are no longer owners of property. 

    ◦    12. When a slip is registered to a particular lot and the ownership of the lot changes, the lease agreement becomes void and the slip reverts back to LMPOA. The slip is non-transferable. No Association owned docking can be sold, leased or transferred to the new property owner or any other owner by anyone other than the LMPOA. 

    1.    Watercraft in excess of eight feet wide and twenty-eight feet long will not be permitted in LMPOA slips. The addition of carpet or tires are not permitted to be attached to docks. If removed by the LMPOA, the cost of disposal will be billed to the property owner.
 
    •    14. Any violation of these docking rules and regulations will result in
    •       a fine of $50.00 to $200.00 and loss of slip.
