Any person launching or recovering a vessel from a trailer using a launch ramp owned or operated by the Haines Borough must have first either purchased an annual launch ramp sticker from the harbormaster or paid a daily fee according to the most current assembly approved harbor fee schedule and shall be provided for in HBC 16.16.030. Upon payment of such fees, a sticker shall be provided by the harbormaster, which shall be prominently displayed on the boat trailer. Payment of such fees shall allow unlimited launching and retrieval of one boat per permit at any borough boat launch facility. Any person not wishing to obtain the annual permit sticker shall be charged a daily ramp use fee according to the most current assembly approved harbor fee schedule. It is presumed that a trailer in a ramp parking lot or in the parking lot adjacent to any of the borough port and harbor facilities either has been used or is intended to be used to launch or recover a vessel via the launch ramp owned and operated by the Haines Borough. Accordingly, an annual permit or receipt for daily use shall be displayed on all boat trailers parked in borough port and harbor facilities and owners shall park in compliance with signage. Use of any borough launch ramp facility without payment of appropriate fees shall result in a fine determined by the most current borough schedule of fees and charges per violation. All boat launch ramp revenue shall be maintained in a separate cash reserve account and appropriated only for the maintenance, repair, reconstruction or new construction of boat launch ramps operated by the borough. (Ord. 12-01-281 § 4; Ord. 07-08-162)
