Harbors and Navigation Code·California

AI SummaryVerified

This law says the board of supervisors must write down in their meeting minutes the final borders of the harbor district, what building or fixing work will happen there, and how much it will cost.

Key Takeaways

•The board must record the decision in the official minutes.
•The record must include the exact outer borders of the harbor district.
•It must list the improvement or development work to be done.
•It must give an estimate of the total cost and any extra expenses.

Example

The board meets and decides the harbor will get a new dock and a deeper channel, sets the district line at the old pier, and estimates the project will cost $3 million plus extra fees.

They write all of that into the official meeting notes, so everyone knows the exact area, the work planned, and the money needed.
