Default Questions for shorefront property owners

From one of the other threads, it appears that there is quite a bit of bureaucratic red tape required to get permission to maintain/repair a dock. Do you folks think that this red tape contributes significantly to the number of "rickety" structures on the lake front?

(Before you flame me, I'm well aware that even solid structures have been damaged, and that most shorefront owners keep their docks in good repair. And, since I weekend aboard my boat and spend more time on a dock than most, I'm well aware of just how hard large wakes can slam into a dock! But we all know that the rickety stuctures are out there too!)

Another question is how much hassle you expect the red tape to be in getting your docks repaired once this situation is over?

Since the Forum seems to be drawing a fair amount of media attention at present, would it be a good idea if we all got behind trying to make the repair process a bit easier for you in the wake of this situation?
