31 Lienau provided the manager’s report as listed in the meeting agenda. He noted that the marina
32 winterization process is complete. Seasonal slip renewals are finalized with only three slips
33 turning over for 2025. Transient reservation requests have started filtering in with over a
34 hundred reservations currently in process. Sail Door County’s new contract has been signed
35 and is ready for the board to approve at the next meeting. Marina construction consultants and
36 vendors have advised that concrete is the best material to replace the boardwalk with. The
37 marina managers are still awaiting a final quote for a concrete replacement, but it is imperative
38 that the boardwalk is replaced by next season. A maintenance dredging permit is currently in
39 process to allow dredging of the lakebed in the marina to accommodate gradually lowering
40 water levels in the great lakes. The Sumerset Marine construction quotes in the packet for C and
41 D Dock resurfacing are reversed in their labeling but will be amended soon. Both marina
42 managers will be attending the American Marine Industries National Conference and Expo in
43 late January.
