THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

The Town of Harrison has adopted a comprehensive Mooring Regulations Ordinance, revised June 10, 2026, that establishes detailed rules for mooring locations, specifications, registration, waitlists, marina allocations, fees, and enforcement. The ordinance requires annual registration at the Town Office, online application availability, fee assessments set by the Select Board, waitlist management, certified-mail notices, and tracking of violations, removals, and penalties.

What it means for vendors

While the document does not mention specific technology or service contracts, the complexity of the new rules implies operational needs around permit processing (in-office and web-based), mooring inventory mapping, waitlist administration, billing/fee collection, and enforcement tracking. Vendors offering permitting/licensing software, online payment portals, GIS-based mooring management, or outsourced administration could help the town implement and streamline these processes as the ordinance goes into effect for the 2026 boating season and beyond.

Background

Fee levels and penalties are set annually in the Town Fee Schedule by the Select Board; the ordinance also adds structured appeal and enforcement workflows that may need administrative tools.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
