SoHa Black River Park Fish Cleaning Upgrade

[dan agnello]

The disposal at the fish cleaning station is now practically useless for cleaning salmon, last few years no carcasses and now no skins, etc.

It’s only good for perch n pan fish.

A city worker that does a great job cleaning docks, cleaning station etc said the only way to get improvements is to contact the city.

They have a fourth new skid pier allocated in 2018/19 budget.

I sent an email to the city manager ,  Harbormaster/asst city manager, city engr, rec dept and the city council.

Instead of replacing a skid pier I would like to see them replace the fish cleaning disposal with a new larger one. The existing skids are in pretty good shape and they could wait a few more years for replacement. They replaced 3 last year.

Also, two very inexpensive upgrades:

1. For you lazy guys that use electric knives, lol, hang 4 GFCI 120vac outlets from the ceiling (like St Joe city launch fish cleaning station). 

2. Change incandescent light with a new LED light fixture.   

I would encourage fisherman/rec users to also send letters, emails or call the city to express your concerns.

They gave a great online directory that lists each person’s name, phone number and email address.

Thanks
