Subject:   200 ft long dock
Date:   4/5/2006 1:37:48 PM

I want to build a 200 foot long dock. APC will not grant me a permit do it. I am considering building 8 25 foot long floating docks and lashing them together.

I will register each one and get an AL number. I plan to get solar lighting for the necessary lighting regs.

Does anyone know if this can or has been done in the past.

Hotrod,

If you put lights on a 200' long dock it wouldn't be a dock any more. It would become a landing strip wouldn't it? Maybe this is why APC won't give you the permit because you haven't filed it with the FAA yet and Airline Pilots Assocation. You might want to look into this.

You might want to call it HotRod Hartsfield Jackson Airport instead of a lake house.

You probably aren't serious, but if you are, I believe using all the various approvals you can muster, including swim platform, you can extend 62 ft out into the lake. You could run the 200 ft along your bank!!!

someone in a slough close to us built a boat house with an extra long dock. A neighbor said he started off without a permit, until in the slough reported him. The reson they filed the report is because the dock made it hard from the other people in the slough to get in and out.
He ended up with a fine, and had to shorten the dock.
Which I am sure cost him a few $$$ to take down and rebuild.

Why would someone need a 200 ft dock?

For a 198' barge?

I need the dock because I might want to give away free beer to make Roy Moore mad.

I wanted to erect a large revival type tent at the jazz fest and give away free beer but they would not let me do that, so I thought I could do it at the lake.

Build your 200 foot pier, get a rock and carve the 10 commandments on it and mount it to you new pier. You should be able to use the pier for a year or so until the courts make you remove it. Ignore the court order (after all it is only a court ruling you will be ignoring), quit you job and run for governor on the premise that you stood up for your beliefs.

Better do it quick! I hear AP is considering a ban on ALL dock construction

Let me know if your next door neighbors ever want to sell; I will buy their place. What could be better than to have a next-door neighbor that likes to give away beer. We could be best friends...LOL

As a friend BTH, I should suggest to you to check out his septic tank capacity prior to bying next door. No wonder he wants the pier 200 ft. out.
