Home Waterfront
A home waterfront is a residential lot that is contiguous with waterfront open space/buffer.
Home waterfront properties are allowed to have 1 motorized boat and 1 non-motorized larger vessel (ex. Jon boat, Sailboats, etc.) that is stored near the water's edge.
Smaller watercraft, such as kayaks, canoes, and paddleboards, must be stored on the property and properly screened from view.
Annual Fee Home Waterfront: $100 per year
Please note: Vessels stored at a residence and properly screened from view are not required to display a BCA sticker.
