Marina access "Safety and Access update "Time to Take Action" Just to keep the community up to date, I recently received an email from the BHVA BOD, through Kendrick, stating that they have been reviewing their non resident policy.

For weeks now, since the Appellate Court Decision, I have asked the BOD for a "reasonable" number of access cards for non resident slip renters. Historically, since the inception of the marina, Bristol Harbour has had non residents. Preference has always been given to BH residents, and in several of our settlement proposals, we offered charging a surcharge to non residents. The surcharge would go to BHVA for maintenance and upkeep of the bridge and elevator.

However, now the BOD informed me that access cards are for residents only.

Additionally, structures have been added ( white kayak racks) that block the easement by prescription ("driven way") and the 15' deeded Right of Way blocking access to the marina.

This is the same "malicious", "intimidating", "targeted", "overtly hostile" behavior that 2 Supreme Court judges and 4 Appellate Court judges have referenced in their decisions.

In light of this, I plan to meet with the town to obtain what is needed so that I can start the repair of the stairs ( 4 years is enough... was this an intentional stall by the BOD to block the access to the marina at the expense of the community?)and clear the ROW for safety reasons so there is clear access to the waterfront.
