Those who boat out of the St. Cloud lakefront and marina are urged to use caution after Labor Day, as work will begin Tuesday to replace the floating dock at the Lakefront Park Marina, the city has announced.
The floating dock adjacent to the boat ramps will be replaced and will include a guardrail; the boat ramps will remain open during construction. The $281,207 project is expected to be completed by the end of the month, good weather willing.
“We waited until after the Labor Day holiday weekend, since that’s typically a big weekend for boating,” said Parks & Recreation Director Stephanie Holtkamp. “We are looking forward to having this improvement made, and we know the boaters will enjoy the new floating dock. During construction, boaters can use the dock at the south end of the Marina to load and unload their boats as needed.”
