When did Alton change the rule regarding the roof of a boathouse, to allow a flat roof?

With the construction of the boathouse, the shoreline was increased to a number greater than 47 feet and the amount of water that the Lake contains also increased. If you check a boathouse, you may find several species of fish enjoying their new-found territory. The fish are very happy. What boggles the mind is why are some people not happy?
