Re Moorings not in Sandy Bay

I have spoken to Mikah Butt at ARC phone 366 2000 ext 8215
She is in charge of Coastal permits for moorings
They intend sending out a letter in next few weeks to all those on their register that have moorings outside of Sandy Bay
They will offer options:

1. go through a consenting process to make mooring legal.
2. arrange removal of the mooring I assume at your cost.

The current cost for a notified consent for a mooring is $7,500. They have indicated due to this high cost that they will work with all those interested to put through a combined consent and share the costs. This is a good opportunity to have them facilitate the process at lesser cost particularly when we have the argument of a less assured ferry service.
Everone should contact ASAP, Mikah to make sure they are on register

Regards Craig

Please note, this letter is from a Rakino person, not the Rakino Ratepayers Association.
It has been pointed out that costs incurred may be much more than the $7,500 suggested above as this is a complex process. You may also still have to battle it out with the Boating Associations which will fight tooth and nail.
