Paddler chose not to speak at the hearing held this evening and asked me to represent his family, which I gladly did.

To make a long story short, the ZBA unanimously dtermined that the complaint was not valid and was a civil matter between paddler and the complainant. The Town's Attorney also sided with the Code Enforcement Officer.

Needless to say the webcam lives on, and we are all the better by being allowed to continue to enjoy it's splendor.

We do ask that anyone wishing to check out or appear on the camera be cognizant of the neighbor's valid concerns about close boating in the very shallow waters.

Other than that, thank you John for sticking to your guns and being the gracious webcam host that you are!

It's always good when "the little guy" wins.
