In response to the letter submitted by A.M. “AL” Johnson entitled “Boodoggle Looking For A Place To Happen”, I agree with the sentiments/concerns expressed by Mr. Johnson. His concerns centered around SB 92, the “Derelict Vessels” bill, sponsored by Senator Peter Micciche. The bill was submitted at the request of Harbor Masters across the state because of the problems encountered statewide with vessels being abandoned with no or little way law enforcement personnel could trace who were the owners of the boat.
With that said, I did not vote for the bill, Al. I had some of the same concerns you expressed in your letter and I did look at the bill from the perspective of which you suggested: “from the position of being a boat owner….”
Respectfully,
Rep. Dan Ortiz
