Requests for municipal dock permits may be filed with the Harbor Master at any time; specifying the type and size of the vessel for which a permit is requested. Priority shall be given to those persons seeking to renew a permit granted in the preceding year. After February 15, the last date for filing applications for renewal of municipal dock permits, applications for new permits will be forwarded to those persons who have requested the same as space is available for the type and size of vessel for which municipal dock space has been requested.

Subject to the consent of the Harbor Master and upon payment of a fee as set forth in Chapter A347, Fees, the holder of a permit may exchange such permit with the holder of another permit so as to allow an exchange of locations between such two holders. The holder of a permit may substitute another vessel of which such holder is the owner, lessee or charterer for the vessel originally specified in the permit, provided that the Harbor Master approves such substitution upon written application therefor.

In the event that the holder of a municipal dock permit sells his vessel while the permit is still in force, he shall immediately notify the Harbor Master, in writing. The party holding such municipal dock permit shall cause the decal to be removed prior to the vessel's delivery to the purchaser.

If said vessel is claimed by its true owner subsequent to the date given by the Harbor Master for vessel to be out of the harbor area, then the Village Manager can assess reasonable removal and storage fees based upon those rates prevailing in the area at the time said vessel is claimed, and said fees must be paid prior to receipt of the vessel by the permit holder or owner. Any moneys expended by the Village of Mamaroneck associated with removal or auction must be paid by either the new owner or the previous owner.

(10) 
If an assigned vessel is to be removed from its space for a period of 30 days or more after July 1 and before September 1, the owner shall notify the Harbor Master. Failure to notify the Harbor Master shall be a violation of this section and the space shall be forfeited and reassigned, unless the Harbor Master agrees to waive this provision.
(11) 
No part of a vessel or its equipment shall be permitted to project over the edge of a municipal dock more than 12 inches.

If directions given by the Harbor Master, with the approval of the Village Manager, with respect to removing unauthorized moorings or changing the location of existing moorings, shortening of mooring chains, cables or ropes or with respect to other provisions of this chapter are not complied with within 10 days after notice of such direction has been given as herein provided, the Harbor Master, with the approval of the Village Manager, may cause such moorings to be removed or changed or may drop the same to the bottom. The cost of such removal, change or dropping will be assessed against the owner of the vessel, and an action therefor may be instituted in the Village Court. Whenever the Harbor Master shall be unable to find the owner of a vessel or mooring or any agent or person in possession, charge or control thereof upon whom notice may be served, he shall address, stamp and mail such notice, by certified mail, to such person at his last known address and, in addition thereto, shall, during the notice period, attach said notice to the subject vessel.
F. 
Any vessel or marine structure or part thereof, including moorings, which becomes a menace to navigation or a danger to life, property or the environment, which is unseaworthy or sinks to the bottom or is run aground or otherwise becomes disabled, shall be removed by the owner or person in charge thereof within 10 calendar days of issuance of an order to correct said hazard by the Harbor Master. If such menace to navigation and/or safety is not removed or corrected within 10 calendar days as aforesaid, it may be removed or corrected by the Harbor Master or at his direction, and the cost thereof shall be charged against said owner or person in charge of said navigation hazard.
