Boat Lifts Permitted at Marina

Boat lifts are now permitted at the marina. Lifts for boats, pontoons/tritoons, and jet skis may be installed but must be approved in advance by the Marina Committee. Five lifts have already been installed at the marina for tritoons, pleasure and ski boats. Approval is required to prevent damage to the dock, ensure that it does not interfere with the adjacent slip, and to maintain the integrity of the marina.

 Approval may be obtained by contacting Dave Skorny (609-288-0111, rails42@yahoo.com) or Scott Gregory (440-452-9486, ssgregory@bettcher.com) who will obtain approval from the Marina Committee. Approval is expected to be almost immediate if comparable to the current installations or within 2-3 weeks for new installers.

A $500 deposit is required which would cover any damage when the lift is removed. The money will be placed in a separate bank account and be readily available if and when the lift is removed.  Checks can be made out to the Norris Shores Property Owners Association and mailed to P.O. Box 2, Sharps Chapel, TN 37866.  A slip rental is also required which is accompanied by a copy of the boat registration and proof of insurance.  An identification sticker, provided by the Association, must be attached to the boat as well.

If you have any questions, please contact Dave or Scott.

Chairman Beautification Committee     

March is just around the corner.  We’re getting everything in place for March cleanup.  There are 5 Saturdays in March again this year.  The board has decided to forgo the first Saturday (March 2) as a cleanup day, and has scheduled a board meeting instead.

Cleanup Saturdays will be March 9^th, 16^th, 23^rd, and 30^th.  We’ll meet at the clubhouse at 9am and work until about noon.  The forestry division loans us their chipper for two weeks.  This year the chipper will be dropped off at the marina the 14^th or 15^th, and be picked up the 28^th or 29^th.
