Might As Well Use A Row Boat

Elections matter, elections may not give you the results you were looking for!

Update on slow-no-wake bill
   

The slow-no-wake bill (SB 12) passed the full Senate on February 24, 2009.

The bill would establish a slow no wake zone within 100 feet of a lake’s shoreline for motorboats. This proposal includes an opt-out provision, allowing local government to exclude lakes if the law significantly impacts recreation. Pick-up and drop zones for water skiers would also be excluded.

SB 12 is scheduled for a public hearing before the Assembly Natural Resources Committee this week. The Committee will then have to schedule an Executive Session on the bill, vote on amendments, and vote to send the bill forward to the full Senate for consideration.
