I believe Fountain Lake should have a public dock on Bridge Avenue. This dock would be helpful in many ways. Boaters can get gas from the gas station. They can also go across the street to get food from the many restaurants located on Bridge. This would be a benefit for both boaters and store owners.

To raise the money we can have donation buckets all around town. We could also just use the dock connected to the beach. I have rarely seen any people dock there. I know with a plan we could find a way to afford the new dock.

Bridge Avenue would be the perfect spot for a new dock. It will help the community by bringing more customers to the stores located on the street. And it would be convenient and helpful to all boats. Over all it would be a win-win situation for both the boaters and the stores on Bridge Avenue.
