DOCK MEETING WEDNESDAY NIGHT

Walker lawmaker Larry Howes will host a town hall meeting tomorrow night to talk about dock regulations. Howes said the DNR may announce later this year, in December that it's firming up rules and requirements, and he wants people to have one last chance to voice their opinion. Citizens can now get a permit for a larger platform at the end of their docks, up to 10' X 17' or 170 feet square. The DNR wanted to start issuing tickets last year for docks larger than current law allows. The agency advertised its intention in the State Register but Howes said he doesn't know too many non-government people who read that paper. Howes said people have a right to be heard before the state imposes new rules. The meeting runs from 7-9pm, Wednesday night, October 24th at the Pequot Lakes High School.
