Wedgefield Marina





This design was an alternative to the communities proposed assessment to dredge the canals for around 1.2 Million. The cost to dredge only benefited the 80 or so lot owners along the canals and left the remaining 500 homes unaccounted for in the benefit. The goal was to provide water access for the canal owners to the Black River. The design is based on similar costs for docks of this side and could be incorporated in phases. It contains a private option for a riverside cafe. It also provides a kayak locker for residents who do not own a larger vessel. The marina would also allow residents in the multi-family areas of the PUD who are restricted from parking boats the ability to store their boat at the marina. Slip fees have the potential to generate revenue. This plan was not submitted to the board for review as they choose to approve the dredging prior to the plans completion.
