In Other Planning Commission News: Boat Lift Approved

by SC Reporter Emilie Alfino

A new boat lift was unanimously approved at an existing dock at 526 North Yachtsman Drive, owned by Tyler and Jennifer Diciola. The dock required a 23-foot waterward extension, but only 15 feet is allowed waterward of the mangrove roots. The variance was granted on the conditions that (1) the size of any boat to be placed on the boat lift shall be such that the boat does not project past the property lines as extended waterward and will not pose an impediment to navigation or boat canal access, and (2) a building permit must be obtained prior to construction of the dock and boat lift to verify consistency with the approved variance.
