The general purpose of this article is to make
the best use of available mooring space in Glen Cove Harbor so as
to accommodate more craft, to avoid congestion, to avoid obstruction
of channels and fairways, to make available mooring positions with
due regard for the depth of water and draft of the boats accommodated
and to afford ease of approach to and departure from moorings without
danger of fouling or collision.
The city assumes and shall be under no liability
for anything done or omitted to be done under or in relation to any
of the provisions of this article, and applicants for permits shall
release the city accordingly.
Nothing contained herein shall apply to the
location of moorings on the shore side of established government bulkhead
lines.
The Harbormaster shall be authorized to issue
permits for maintaining mooring equipment within the anchorage areas.
No mooring shall be placed or mooring boats anchored without such
permit. Such permits shall expire on the first day of January on the
year next succeeding the year in which issued, and shall not be transferable.
The Harbormaster shall collect and record in
a proper register the location and the names, length, draft, beam,
type and names and addresses of the owners of all boats moored in
the harbor, and the position of each approved mooring shall be noted
upon a chart of the harbor. Such records and charts shall be records
of the city, and shall be kept in such place as is designated by the
Mayor.
