Float Space 8W was discussed last month. The brochures on two boats have been issued and there are two new subtenants. A general discussion of the applicant’s business ensued. Rex McKinsey recommended continuing the application until the next meeting. The Board felt that they would like to meet with and talk to the applicants. Lee Ash said she would feel OK with a phone conversation or brochure.
A motion was made to approve the license for the 2 vessels that are there presently.. The approval for the new sub-tenants would be a conditional upon meeting more stringent parameters of C91’s commercial operations as defined by the Pier Corp.

The Board discussed license renewals and a set of guidelines/standards of licensing.
Paul DeRuyter suggested continuing the hearing regarding Float Space 9W and to ask the float owners to appear before the Board. The Board does not approve of the two recreational boats to be on the float.
A motion was made to allow the license for the Bay Lady but not for the other boats.

The hearing for Float Space 10W will be continued until June 23rd because of problems the owner wants to work out. The Pier Corp. will use the space until the Hindu is ready to return. George Hitchcock questioned the legality of this.
