I'm looking at places in the southern end of the lake... They were all built in the 80's. Many of them do not have a pristine permit trail. It seems to be the status quo for island properties. But with the DES and Shoreline Protection rampage I'm nervous about buying a place and then having to pay to remove something and at the same time devalue the property (at least devalue a feature that I paid for).

I'm sure DES could find many 100s of non fully permitted docks on the lake if the non conforming grandfathered date is really 1969.
