Looks Like Moabi wants to go head to head with Havasu for the Channel traffic and all the TAX DOLLARS being spent in Havasu.........HAVASU will be hurting for those TAX dollars sooner than they expected.....

Funding Request: $2 Million
Total Project Cost: $6 Million
Moabi Regional Park Channel Rehabilitation: ($4 million) In order to facilitate water flows year round, eliminate health risks and provide the Sheriff with more access to the River for safety and emergency events, Regional Parks proposed improvements to Moabi’s inlet and outlet channel.
Project Description: The project entails the dredging of channel inlet 300’ to 400’ from the River up to the abandoned flow structure thus removing approximately 4’-0” of silt. Also, dredging will need to 2009 Federal Legislative Platform 29 occur at the current Marina access inlet/outlet to eliminate a large sand bar that restricts water traffic even at high river flows.
Flow structure removal and bridge installation: Reconfiguration of the existing and abandoned flow structure will entail the complete removal of three +/- 48” VCP inlet pipes and removal of the water flow control structure. After the dredging and widening of the inlet, the design and installation of a twolane
(24’-0” minimum) span constructed vehicular bridge. The bridge will allow park campers continued vehicular access to Peninsula site 1 through 16. Analysis of the upper inlet area indicates that a +/- 120 lineal foot bridge, constructed 26 to 30 feet wide, with a standard pile and pile cap
arrangement, in three 40 foot sections would adequately allow clearance for 85% to 90% of all boat traffic on the river. It will also eliminate approximately 20 minutes of emergency response time for the Sheriff and create more access to the Moabi Park Marina.
The existing subsurface rock bar, which is an old railroad alignment, is located at and across a portion of the entrance to the Moabi Park Marina. The rock bar, which lies just below the water line at its lowest level, will have rock material added so as to fully expose the bar regardless of
the water level. It is intended to create a breakwater for the Marina thus protecting craft occupying the existing and new mooring space in the marina.
Design and fully replace the existing “A” and “C” docks within the Moabi Park Marina. This project requires the total replacement of dock pilings, along
with the complete replacement of flotation units, substructure and decking.
