What’s in it

AI summary People with dock permits can build enclosed structures to protect their boat lifts or slips if they follow specific size and material rules. If someone builds one of these structures, they must carry at least $1 million in liability insurance for the dock. The owner is also responsible for any damages caused by the dock or the new structure.1

Read the official explanation

This bill relates to enclosed structures on private docks and a requirement to maintain liability insurance for the dock on which the structure is constructed. The bill allows a person with a valid dock site permit and hoist or slip assignment to build an enclosed structure if the enclosed structure meets building material and size requirements and is used to protect a hoist or a slip and not for certain other purposes. The bill requires an owner of a dock to carry liability insurance with a minimum per occurrence coverage of $1 million for the dock with an enclosed structure constructed pursuant to the bill. The owner shall be liable for any damages caused by private dock and enclosed structure.
