The Idaho Department of Lands approved a controversial new 46 boat dock to be constructed on the northwest side of Hayden Lake. The Falls At Hayden Lake Homeowner's Association was granted the encroachment permit for a 23 slip dock, with each slip accommodating two boats. The Falls At Hayden Lake is a controversial waterfront development scheduled for construction later this year.
The request for approval brought a lot of resistance from current Hayden Lake waterfront property owners. They have seen increased boat traffic through the years and dread the addition of 46 more boats and the accompanying traffic and noise. Locals also worry that the dock will establish a precedence and encourage further development along the shoreline.
Todd Stam, one of the developers of The Falls At Hayden Lake, said they put a lot of effort into their plan to make the docks environmently friendly. He pointed out that the community docks will have much less impact on wildlife and sport fishing than would a number of single family docks along the same property.
