Weirs docks pedal boats

That area behind the docks is (now was) perfectly fine for shallow draft boats including my tritoon.

I live behind those docks for a good part of the season as it is near impossible to get a front spot on a busy day, and even if there is a front spot I try to leave those for those who can only park out front.

If they actually did some research PRIOR to making decisions, photos of the docks on weekends would show that there are (now were) always 'toons and jetskis parked back there in the above 'yellow zone".

Such a bad idea, if anything why not allow them to rent them off the beach area closest to the docks, but in general what a bad idea to put bodies in the water outside the swim lines (its there for a reason) within the busiest section of the lake, if someone was personally operating these items that's one thing, but for the town to invite it is, its like chuming for sharks

Woodsy, thanks for the detailed picture showing the zone requested to keep the new business's watercraft. It also shows a possible alternative space closer to the arcade and fuel dock.

Is there an exit/entry point out into the lake somewhere in that zone? If so, that might alleviate some of the issues mentioned in this thread.
