New Marina Location Aims to Expand Boater Options
A new marina below Lock and Dam 10 will add 45 slips with five to nine reserved for transients, expanding options for boaters in pool 11 from Guttenberg to Dubuque. Vinyl sheet piling, driven by crane weight, will form retaining walls, offering rust resistance and lower cost but tougher installation. Some local marinas worry about city competition with private business and questions remain on need and utilization.

He notes Iowa’s 40.4 cent fuel tax lags the national 49.4 cent average and urges a fair plan with rebates for low income motorists, a sunset clause, and a transit focus. He dismisses tolls as fantasy and calls for clear lawmakers explanations.
