Docks

There are policies and regulations to follow if you plan to build a dock or boathouse on your waterfront property in the City of Kenora.

City of Kenora properties

Before you begin construction, apply for a building permit.

Review the regulations for accessory structures like docks, bathhouses and shoreline development, in the Zoning By-law and the shoreline development policies within the Official Plan.

You can also contact the Planning Department to discuss your project.

Rather than taking on a construction project, you can find boat docking through private marinas and public docking in Kenora.

Consult the Ontario Government for work permits for docks or boathouses on Crown land.
