| Recommendation: |
Create a balance between the number of transient (daily) marina slips and available shoppers (hourly) dockage. |
| Project Cost: |
$77,273 ($57,955 in Michigan Waterways Commission monies / $19,318 in Charlevoix Downtown Development Authority funds) |
| Completion Date: |
July 2007 |
Prior to the marina expansion project, the City of Charlevoix was able to offer approximately 50 feet in shoppers
dockage. The expansion of Charlevoix’s municipal marina offered an excellent opportunity to create additional hourly dock space for Downtown shoppers.
Shoppers dockage is offered complementary
to boaters wishing to visit Downtown’s stores and restaurants. Upon completion of the marina renovation project in July 2007, available shoppers dockage expanded to nearly 340 feet. |
