STOP ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 91 OF TOWN CODE ENTITLED "BOATS & BOATING”

The Issue

This ordinance would:
1. Severely & unfairly impact the rights and freedom of all boaters to rightfully and lawfully use and freely navigate the public waters of Lake Ontario and Irondequoit Bay.

2. Severely increase erosion along the shoreline of both Lake Ontario & Irondequoit Bay due to the lowering of the 25mph speed limit to 20mph.

3. Potentially incite similar actions by other Towns thereby narrowing allowable navigable areas of both waterways causing increased boating congestion and possible hazard of collision.

4. Possibly violate Federal & State laws and or guidelines regarding navigation of public waterways.
