Not True in my opinion....you are allowed to have more dock space for every 75 ft of added frontage. See below:
Env-Wt 402.13 Frontage Over 75'. To lessen congestion, improve public safety and navigation, protect neighboring property values, provide sufficient area for construction of facilities, provide adequate area for boat maneuvering, and protect health, safety, and general welfare, there shall be a minimum of 75' of shoreline frontage on the property for the first 2-slip structure and an additional 75' of shoreline frontage on the property for each additional boating slip or securing location on a structure for non-commercial use. This section shall not be interpreted to prevent construction of a dock on lots with less than 75' of shoreline frontage as provided in Env-Wt 402.12.
As a result, if you have at least 150 ft of frontage, measured as the average between a straight line between your pins and the waterfront frontage at the high lake level, then you can apply for a permit to have a third slip. this allows for a "U" shaped configuration, etc. So 150 ft would allow for three slips, 225 ft would allow for four slips, etc. Need to file with DES as a Standard Dredge and Fill permit...not a the seasonal dock notification application. They are two different things.
