Picture Marine Project

Citizens' comments are below. Each citizen who participated in the project photographed Marine sites and then indicated whether she or he thought the subject of the photograph had a positive value or negative value.

River, Marina, & Public Landing

Positives

  • Marina allows access to river for lease owners, friendly place to congregate, restaurant opens beauty of river to customers, provides canoe service for all.
  • Easy access to the river is a luxury - we feel very lucky. What an amazing sight to see a canoe at nearly every residence.
  • Marina is an historic, beautiful local gathering place.
  • Value the river behind the general store. Beautiful, but take out the stumps and replace with a bench!

Negatives

  • How should we control river use and access to residents? To the public (tourists)? Parking, refuse, bathroom facilities-how much of our tax dollars will go to providing access to the public? I value a quiet little village. Need to develop a balance of access for tourists and privacy for residents.
  • Households along the river that have clear-cut their banks.
  • Unmarked public access discourages use.
