New SSYC Association Rules:

Hello Members and Guests,

Two new rules were added to the Association Rule book by the SSYC Board of Directors (BOD) to address some issues that occurred during the 2016 season. These rules go into effect this 2017 season. From page 5 of the rule book:

24. Effective 2017 Season: To protect our rip-rap, all boats moored at SSYC must be placed bow in first (i.e. bow towards the rip-rap).

25.  All grill use must be 5 feet or more from permanent structures.

Have a fun and safe boating season!

Sincerely,  SSYC BOD

 

Violation Tags (VT):

What are these tags and why did I get one? This is a question that may cross the minds of the few that receive one of these tags during the season. VT’s were started a couple of seasons ago to convey messages about problems or violations that come up from time to time. The SSYC’s Board of Directors (BOD) is composed of volunteers and we don’t always have time to wait to talk in person or to try to track down a slip owner to call them about an issue.

Most of the issues that the VTs are used for are minor and only require the slip owner to see that the problem is corrected. Most of the time that is the end of it. On rare occasions the matter is escalated into a true violation issue and at that time the BOD follows the process outlined in the Bylaws of SSYC.

Sometimes it’s a complaint and sometimes we notice the issue that generated the VT.  We do our best to monitor our club to keep it safe and fun and we ask that you do the same.

Please don’t take these VTs personally as their primary use is to save us time and effort in handling these matters.

Remember, each slip owner is responsible for knowing and letting their guests know about the SSYC Association Rules. This especially applies to slip owners that rent their slips since renters are considered club guests. All documents are on our website.
