Dock Builders Cutler Bay
Dock builders in Cutler Bay need site plan approval for docks in the Town’s water use district, and the design has to resemble docks on the adjoining lots (Sec. 3-64).
We connect Cutler Bay owners with licensed marine contractors who design to fit.
Free consultation and a written scope.

Up to 20 feet waterward on lakes such as those around Lakes By the Bay, and 6 feet on canals.

Sec. 3-64 asks for a design similar to docks on the adjoining lots. Photos of the neighbors’ docks help the site plan review.
