Moored floats, whether commercial, rental, or private, are to be regulated in the same manner as permitted moorings in this article, and by federal or state law.

[Ord. No. 55-2003, 6-17-2003; Amd. of 5-2-2012]
Moored float locations will be assigned by the harbormaster in accordance with predetermined areas which the harbormaster has identified as appropriate for moored float locations, and, within those areas, to a specific location requested by the applicant, or to the closest such location that is appropriate for the applicant's use and otherwise permissible under this article. Moored floats in the inner harbor shall be placed along the easterly edge of the channel buffer if space is available. No moored floats or structures shall be allowed within the twenty-five-foot buffer to the channel. Permits will not be granted for floats if the placement of the moored float interferes with navigation of other vessels or interferes with the use of other mooring sites by vessels with permits, or if the placement of such a float is inconsistent with space management of the harbor.
[Ord. No. 55-2003, 6-17-2003]
If a moored float creates a navigational hazard or is considered to have the potential to become a navigational hazard, or is not considered to be a sound or safe berth by structural failure or damage if the float is left in during winter months and ices up, etc., the harbormaster may require the float not to be used or to be immediately removed by the individual the moored float is permitted to. If the float is not removed, the harbormaster may remove it at the owner's expense.
