§ 17.04.900. Securing vessel without permission—Removal authorized when—Charges.
Latest version.
The owner or other person having charge of any vessel shall not secure, moor, or make
fast any vessel to any float, wharf, pier, mooring or other facilities within park
waters without the consent of the lessee, agent or other person in charge of such
facility. It is unlawful for the owner or operator of such vessel to fail or refuse
to remove or change the position of such vessel as ordered by the director. In the
event the owner of a vessel moored without permission cannot be located within a reasonable
time, the director may, at his discretion, remove the vessel without liability for
any damage thereto, and such vessel shall remain in his custody until claimed by proper
owners, who shall pay all expenses incurred by the county in connection therewith.
Such charges shall be in accordance with the Schedule of Charges for Services Rendered
and Supplies Furnished by the Harbor Patrol, as approved by the board of supervisors
on November 20, 1965, or as subsequently amended.
