If I were a park dweller, I would be happy to hear this news. And anything that decreases the number of party floaters or makes their access to the river more difficult, no matter how insignificant, is A-OK in my book. And why should a private livery get to financially benefit from taxpayer dollars? If they want a convenient access point, may I suggest they buy some property along the river or share access with another private livery? The parks are for the public's use, not for private enterprise and profit.
