DOCK CONSTRUCTION

GUIDELINES FOR DOCK CONSTRUCTION OR REPAIR

May 1, 2007 

The Port Royal Property Owners Association, Inc. has established a Dock and Shoreline Committee to oversee dock construction and repair in Port Royal and to examine and act upon plans and applications submitted for review.  Please call the Association office at 261-6472 to arrange to drop off your plans.  The office is located at 1020 Eighth Avenue South, Suite 3 (first floor), and is open Monday - Friday from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. 

We request you present the dock structure and proposed changes and/or new structures on an accurately depicted legal engineering survey of the property involved. Such surveys must show all property lines, setback lines, the width of the waterway adjacent to the property, the top and the toe of the rip-rap, and all pertinent elevations, including heights of the two waterfront setback monuments and the location of neighbors’ docks on both sides of the proposed dock construction.  In addition, an aerial photograph of the existing dock, shoreline, and adjacent properties must be included. On properties where a dock may extend into the waterway to reach a depth of 5 feet MLW, a survey of the water depth at MLW must be supplied.   

Three (3) hard copies of a proposed plan, original executed Dock Owner Certification, original executed Dock Builder Certification, and a check for the applicable review fee (as shown below) must be received at the Association office prior to review of the proposed plan by the Committee. Faxed copies of plans are acceptable only for preliminary information purposes.
