The Squantz Cove boat ramp on Candlewood is going to be updated.

Here are few details:
- Will be ADA compliant and fit needs of more boaters

- Entire area will be excavated to do the work (probably no blasting required)

- Will include a floating dock system

- Will include a separate canoe/kayak launch area

- To include a toilet building

- Will haandicapped parking

- Solar powered lighting

- Expanded parking area

Early design ready by early next week.

Then a public information meeting will be scheduled to look and comment (might be virtual) hopefully before next spring.

Then there will be a final design & permitting phase.

Depending on opposition, then a formal hearing process (could take months)

If it goes smoothly, could go into the permitting phase in spring.

Don't anticipate construction until summer of next year earliest.
