Reduce the potential…

Reduce the potential environmental impacts, such as disposal of black/grey water and garbage, and lower the spread of plastics pollution from the use of unencapsulated dock foam for flotation.
Reduce the safety issues for those on board these units, which have poor navigability and are unstable in high winds/waves
Keep these floating accommodation units safely moored at shoreline locations, where they can benefit from services such as water, sewage, hydro and garbage disposal
Create the potential for municipalities to apply taxes to these accommodation units to pay for the services provided

Furthermore, I personally water tested in the Bay of Islands ten times a summer for 13 or more years. Water health is of utmost importance to my family who have owned a summer home since 1952. I personally saw the “trailers” above as shown. I saw beer cans tossed onto shore. Don’t know if they were picked up. I saw a scantily clad male “relieving” himself as we trolled in Sturgeon Bay. Also observed the other guy dumping either garbage or human waste up on shore into the trees. Why would we have regs on cruisers then allow this kind of nonsense with scrabbled together “summer homes” who are ignoring the environment and not paying any taxes to maintain clean water and protect the beautiful environment we are lucky enough to enjoy a few months a year. Please stop this for all people. If we let it go now, it will get worse and be so much harder to regulate. YOU have the power NOW to do the right thing and not look the other way until it can’t be stopped. Thank you.
