Love Lane Commercial Dock Policy 2026

A. Intent

The Mattituck Park District Board of Commissioners finds that the municipal dock located within the Mattituck Park District (hereafter “MPD”) on the Mattituck Inlet is primarily intended for public recreational boating and waterfront access. The MPD further recognizes that marine contractors, including dock builders and repair contractors, periodically require temporary access to such facilities to transport materials and equipment associated with waterfront construction projects.

The purpose of this policy is to regulate commercial use of the municipal dock in order to:

1. Protect public access to municipal waterfront facilities.

2. Promote safe and orderly use of the dock.

3. Protect municipal infrastructure and property.

4. Minimize conflicts between commercial operations and recreational users.

5. Establish a permitting system governing such commercial activities.
