GSL Slip Renters,
It is now that time of year to renew your slip contracts. All your slip and
dry storage contracts along with your credit card autopay forms will expire
December 31st.
Contracts will be mailed to you December 6th so expect them in the mail next
week. We forgot to include the 2011 Credit Card Autopay Form though.
Please click on the attachment to this email and print out your AUTOPAY form
and send it back with your contracts.
If you are going to be at the marina this weekend, please stop by and pick
up your contract at that time. We are trying to save money everywhere we
can.
A couple of important notes this year:
1. The state legislature wants to increase slip fees for 2011. This is
in an effort to make PARKS more financially independent. Due to the low
lake level and the fact that we had 20% of our slip renters stuck in the
marina this fall and winter, we have asked for a rent freeze at the 2010
rate levels. And we have been granted a ONE YEAR freeze on "Wet Slip"
rentals except for "K" dock. "K" dock will go up to the standard 30' rate
as all the other 30' slips. This means 'K' dock's rates will be $180/month
during the summer months and stay at the standard $90/month rate during the
winter months (or $210.00 increase annually). All dry storage rates, daily
slip rental rates and park entrance rates (for non-slip renters) will go up
in APRIL. For a complete listing of the new rates please see the attachment
to this email.
2. You are now required to have liability insurance to rent space at the
marina. Please include that in the contract.
3. Please make sure you fill out the forms COMPLETELY (except for the
mussel-free certification information for obvious reasons).
4. If you do not know some of your boat information, please feel free to
email harbormaster(a)gslmarina.com and request that information. I will see
if we have that information and I will email it back to you.
5. We need the completed forms back NO LATER than January 5th, 2011.
Unreturned boat slip lease forms shall signify that the lease is not going
to be renewed and that the boat owner is voluntarily terminating the lease.
6. The front gate code, parking sticker colors, and all the dock keys
will be changed no later than January 5th. Only those individuals that have
submitted a contract prior to that date will be issued codes, passes and
keys to the marina.
A small handful of you may not be receiving contracts but rather collection
or slip cancellation letters. If you have a significant past due amount, we
will not be allowed to renew your contract. Please contact either Bob
Rosell or myself to clear up past due amounts ASAP so that you will not be
locked out January 1st.
Bottom-Of-The-Pit Party.
Yes it is that time of year again. Time for the Bottom-Of-The-Pit Party
celebrating the shortest day of the year and the upcoming boating/paddling
season. We want to invite ALL OUR MARINA USERS to the Great Salt Lake State
Marina on Saturday, December 18th between 11am and 3pm for annual chili
cook-off social. Bring your favorite chili recipe (pot). Awards will be
handed out for most original, hottest (spiciest), most unusual, and the best
tasting recipe. We hope to see you there.
