September 03, 2010 (OC Dana Point Harbor - Safety Tips For Labor Day Weekend)
Holiday weekends often mean increased use of Dana Point Harbor's waterways - and that means an increased need for safety awareness from all boaters. As always, OC Sheriff's Department Harbor Patrol will continue to enforce all boating laws in an effort to keep everyone safe, but boaters are also encouraged to pay extra attention to others on the water and adhere to the following safety tips.

The Possessory Interest Tax is a tax on the value of your use of public property; in this case your slip, the marina parking lot, etc. The Personal Property Tax is a tax on the value of your boat. Each tax is assessed separately and may be appealed. If appealed, the appeals must be done separately. The steps below explain the 2010 individual appeal process.

Keep America Fishing Take Action NOW! -- Help Restore Billfish by Ending Commercial Overfishing of These Threatened Iconic Sportfish.
The Situation Marlin, sailfish and spearfish, collectively called billfish, are some of the world’s most majestic marine fishes. In the U.S., billfish are highly esteemed by recreational anglers, who practice catch-and-release fishing while generating substantial income to the economy. Unfortunately, stocks of these magnificent big ocean fish have been greatly depleted in both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans as a result of commercial overfishing, primarily from foreign countries.
August 10, 2010 (Boater Blast)
To all of our DPBA members participating in the 2009 Possessory Interest Tax (PIT) appeals: You most likely have recently received a notice of a PIT appeal hearing, coming up in October. As usual, it is unnecessary for you take any action and indeed, you can safely ignore this notice.

July 31, 2010 (Boater Blast)
Your DPBA leadership team is spearheading several different groups meeting on boater issues right now. Here we are providing updates on two of these groups, the Parking Task Force and The Slip Fees Market Study. Please do contact us if you have questions, concerns or wish to volunteer to participate. As we've said many times, democracy is a slow, painful process. But it does work pretty well when all stakeholders are properly represented and when those being represented take the time to be well informed and step forward from time to time to contribute with their time and ideas.
