§ 22-60. Unsightly and badly deteriorated vessels declared nuisances.


Latest version.
  • No vessel or watercraft of any kind whatsoever shall be permitted to tie up at any place in the public waterways which is of an unsightly appearance, or in badly deteriorated condition, or which is likely to damage the docks, or which might become a menace to navigation. Vessels in such condition are hereby declared to be a public nuisance. So long as F.S. ch. 327 provides that a county or municipality shall not enact, continue in effect, or enforce any ordinance or local regulation regulating any vessel upon the Florida Intracoastal Waterway, this section shall not be enforced as to any vessel, other than liveaboard vessels as defined herein, located solely upon the Florida Intracoastal Waterway.
