Local Administration of Vessel Restrictions

Summary

The bill lets local governments adopt rules, in coordination with the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, to identify and address vessels at risk of becoming derelict and to enforce long‑term anchoring permits. Designated code enforcement officers can issue non‑criminal citations and handle administrative actions, while law‑enforcement agencies remain available for criminal matters. The measure aims to improve vessel safety and environmental compliance at the local level.
