If I own adjoining private property at Cheatham Lake, can I clear the shoreline of underbrush and/or construct a personal boat dock?
The Cheatham Lake Shoreline Management Plan provides specific policies and guidelines on private recreational boat docks, mowing/underbrushing privileges on public lands, electrical facilities associated with private docks, residential water withdrawal pipelines, access steps, and other private uses of the shoreline by adjacent property owners. The objective of this plan is to balance private use with the preservation of the natural environmental conditions of the lake. The plan includes a shoreline allocation system that determines where such private use privileges and facilities are allowed and where they are prohibited. For more information, download the plan text and/or contact the Resource Manager.
