For Immediate Release
The Town of Columbia will hold its annual Boat Mooring Lottery at the Board of Selectmen meeting scheduled for Tuesday, April 20, 2021 at 7:00 PM in the Adella G. Urban Administrative Offices Conference Room. The purpose of the lottery is twofold. First, it establishes eligibility to rent a mooring (since there are usually more applicants than available moorings). Second, it establishes the order in which residents will choose the location of their boat mooring. Generally, a resident that fares well in the lottery will choose a mooring closer to shore. Any resident wishing to enter the lottery should submit the following information to Town Administration: name, address, phone number, boat type, make, length and motor size. The information may be delivered via email to recdirector@columbiact.org or by postal service or walk-in. Those awarded a mooring will be notified and will be required to supply proof of residency, boat registration information (excluding kayaks/canoes/sailboats), a Safe Boating Certificate, and a non-refundable fee of $100.00. The Town of Columbia limits motor size on Columbia Lake to 80 horsepower for outboard engines and 150 horsepower for inboard engines. For more information, please contact Marc at (860)-228-8513.
