An Act relative to DCR yacht club fees reflecting waterway access

This bill modifies how the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) charges fees to non-profit yacht clubs that lease state-owned waterfront property. It requires that land surveys for these leases explicitly include navigable water channels and mooring areas, and it mandates a maintenance schedule for these waterways. Additionally, the bill clarifies that the state and the club share responsibility for maintaining the land under the water for recreational access and channel protection. Finally, it establishes that lease fees should only be charged if the club has adequate access for boating and can support water-dependent activities.
