Summary

The April 12 St. James minutes reported that the new Harbormaster Building at the municipal Yacht Dock was scheduled to open May 15, 1995. The township also renewed a Corps of Engineers mooring lease through August 1999 and began reviewing dock electrical and plumbing needs.

Evidence limits

The minutes state a planned opening and related municipal actions; they do not confirm the building’s completed opening or later lease performance.
