Annual Town Census

Mooring inspections

Anyone with a mooring number of 500 or above needs to file a new or updated mooring inspection form with the Town Clerk’s Office before payment will be accepted for the 2014 season. A letter was sent out the beginning of August to allow time to have moorings inspected and upgraded if necessary before the 2014 billing season. Any questions regarding this process should be directed to the Town Clerk’s office.

Beginning this year, “self-inspection” of moorings will no longer be allowed per the harbormaster. Mooring inspections must be done by inspectors that have been accepted as qualified by the Mattapoisett Harbormaster’s Office. The list will be available on the Harbormaster’s portion of the town website.
