Rules and limits for this property

We measure the property’s water edge, then take 5 ft off each side — the dock setback that applies here, which is what leaves 65 ft of berth. Width is the other limit: a dock and the boat tied to it may together reach 30% of the way across, so on this 110 ft canal nothing may extend more than 33 ft from your property line. Depth is the one limit we don’t state: no public survey covers these canals at a resolution we can rely on. We’ll measure it at the property for you.

Limits from Fort Lauderdale ULDR 47-19.3 (dock and mooring structures) and Code 8-91(e) (moored vessels).
