Council to discuss mooring
By BRIAN DiTULLIO
Saturday, March 4, 2006 11:04 PM MST
The residents of Lake Havasu City are getting a chance to have their say on the Bridgewater Channel on Tuesday.
Mayor Harvey Jackson is encouraging the public to attend a work session at 5 p.m. Tuesday to receive input on the Bridgewater Channel mooring issue.
Mayor Harvey Jackson said in January his proposal to eliminate most of the mooring in the narrow portions of the Bridgewater Channel is an attempt to reclaim the area for locals and attract more family type tourists to the area.
Jackson's contention is that bigger boats and rowdier crowds have ruined the area for the locals and that by removing the moorings, the rowdy, drunken crowds would move on.
The idea first was proposed at the Jan. 3 work session during a presentation about enforcing the law during the height of the summer boating season and holiday weekends in particular.
The police department later said they never requested that City Council shut down the Channel during that presentation, they simply were looking to eliminate alcohol consumption in the manmade waterway, noting that their arrest statistics show that most of the problems they face stem from the over consumption of alcohol, and that by removing that factor from the equation, the rowdy behavior should be reduced significantly.
Business owners in the Channel area expressed anger and frustration upon hearing about the possibility of moorings being eliminated and vowed to fight it. A group of boaters staged a demonstration on Jan. 8 against Jackson's proposal.
An attempt to limit mooring and beaching in the Channel in May 2005 met stiff resistance, and some of the restrictions were lifted at City Council's direction
Currently, it is up to the city manager to control the amount of mooring and beaching in the Channel.
There were no City Council communications attached to the work session agenda on this issue, only a statement saying there may be additional materials available at the meeting.
The meeting is scheduled to take place at the Police Facility (2360 McCulloch Blvd.). An ad placed by Lake Havasu City encourages interested participants to show up early due to limited seating in the council chambers.

You did brother and it was funny...now at the risk of being smitten by god, we really need to take this channel mooring thing seriously. I have heard the same thing..... the old, uptight jack-offs who seem to only be happy if they are bitching about something are going to be at the meeting in full force. If boaters don't show up....I can just hear Harvey.."well the public has spoken and they clearly want to ban mooring in the channel"...then we will all be looking at ourselves this summer when we are all jammed into the cove at the Nautical, Rotary Beach, etc.... :220v:

We should put a compilation of thread links together and email them to him. Lets face it. The better part of their economy revolves around the LAKE. If we stop spending our money there they have problems. Maybe the voices of these forums can help out the cause. Including RRL, ISL, Havasudougs etc. That should have some impact on him. Just a though as far as stating your view or opinion for folks that dont have property there etc. Just my .02.

Just came from the meeting. It was a pretty good meeting for the boating enthusiast, there was not one person that spoke (including the Mayor, Council, and staff) that suggested the channel should be closed.
Some of the suggestions brought up were:
One way traffic
Mooring spots in channel spaced out to control crowds
Controlled drinking
Increased law enforcement
The most disturbing thing to me was the fact that there was so little participation from the boating industry (exception being Todd from Joker's Wild, and Keith from Conquest. If there were others, please say so). The Havasu boatbuilders rely on those that boat on Havasu to line their pockets, and have the most to lose, and yet they won't even show up to support legislature that would protect their investment, and support those that have bought their products. :mad:
Bottom line- There is nothing iminent that should cause major concern, but if left unchecked, who knows where this could go. Get active people, let your voices be heard.

I just got home too...overall it was a positive night for the boating cummunity, I thought the turn out was lousey. We need more people with ideas to solve the problems.
Mine of course was public education...
I thought Kieth had some good input also...Kind of got the attention where it belonged, on the people that walk down with no boat at all.
the next big fight will be to stop there parking meter idea....

Boat owners should call their Havasu based manufacturer to get involved. Are you listening Magic/Sleek, Advantage, Cheetah, Nordic...???
