From the General Manager, Mark Reid
The bid process for the 60 new boat slips that will be added to the East Lake
Marina has been completed and the Board of Directors has approved Tiger Docks
to be the contractor to provide and install. This new project combined with the
additional docks that were added to “C” dock late last year after the dock was In This Issue
replaced due to storm damage, will give us 68 total new docks to help substantially 5 Board Minutes
reduce the Boat Slip waiting list.

The eight (8) slips on “C” dock are ready for occupancy now and the remaining 60 8 Seasonal Employment
new slips are targeted for June 15, 2020 occupancy. 10 New Member Orientation

Staff will now begin calling the names on the waiting list to see who wants a new slip
and who doesn’t. While a slip on the lake is a coveted item in Lakewood, many people

have been on the wait list for 12 to 14 years and over that time circumstances may have Kids Fishing Derby
changed in their lives to where the want of a boat slip is no longer a priority. For this
and other reasons, we believe that 60 available spaces will shorten the list by around
100 names when all slips are leased.
There is also the partnering aspect of a boat slip that allows even more of the Lakewood
community to have boat access to the lakes. Please remember that only “Primary Boat
Slip Lessee’s” will be given a slip lease and the relationship of partners on the boat is
purely between the Primary and the partners and is not officially documented in the
lease agreement.
The sequence for lease agreements on the new slips will begin with the eight (8) on “C”
dock. Then we will award the twelve (12) new slips on “G” dock, then the eight (8) new
slips on “H” dock, then the eight (8) new slips on “I” dock and finally the 32 slips on
the new “J” dock.
We still must have dock space for our two (2) rental boats and two maintenance
watercraft. We are evaluating a plan to refurbish and relocate the existing maintenance
dock that is currently located where the new “J” dock will be installed.
CALL US TODAY! As part of the Board approved 2020 Lakewood Improvements Program, once we
complete the sixty new slips in Phase 1, then we will begin replacing three old docks,
“D” – “F” on the East Lake under Phase 2 and we will finish the year by replacing four
