Dock District
This district owns and maintains the public dock. This is not the dock used by the ferry service. The ferry dock is privately owned by the ferry company. This district has a deputy commissioner who is proposed by Fair Harbor residents. In addition there is a dock master who is responsible for the day to day operation of the dock. Note that the public dock is not available to boaters on an overnight basis, and can only to be used by boaters for temporary docking. Repairs and maintenance of the dock are paid for by a bond issue which is repaid by local taxes.
