no wake zone petition

[songkrai]

They did a no wake zone in two coves near me. No erosion issues in either.

As far as I am concerned it lowers the waterfront property value. Both were dead end coves - so no thru traffic.

You can go back to the original petition and see if the abbutters were notified by certified mail, if not you can ask for a hearing.

Where would you go to get this information. Would it show the originator,etc.

This new abutters law did not go into effect until the end of last summer. If the NWZ's were petitioned and passed prior to that the certified mail notifications were not needed.

The Dept. is required to post any new hearing on it's web site at least 2 weeks prior to any hearing. If you see one you can call and ask if the abutters were notified by mail.

Keep us posted here for I'd be happy to make a call and check as well.
