GRDA Sets "One Third Cove Rule" Meetings

The Grand River Dam Authority is announcing it has scheduled two public meetings to gather input on the current “one-third cove rule” concerning docks on GRDA lakes. The present rule states a dock cannot extend more than one-third of the distance across the cover to the nearest opposite shoreline.
GRDA will seek public comment as it considers whether to adopt a policy which will allow it to grant dock permits in unique situations where, although the dock extends more than one-third of the distance to the nearest opposite shoreline, a dock permit should be granted after taking into consideration public safety, access, topography and navigational concerns. This policy would modify the existing one-third cove rule.
The public meetings are scheduled for the following dates, at the specific times and locations:
Wednesday, May 30, 2007 at 6 PM at the Grove Community Center.
Thursday, May 31, 2007 at 6 PM at Ketchum High school.
