I believe there is a simple solution to the use of the public boat ramp. The launch should be limited for the use of Sooke taxpayers only. Any Sooke taxpayer that wanted to use the ramp could obtain a visible permit from the Sooke District. This would be similar to how the launch is used in James Bay. The ramp is first come use only, for James Bay anglers only. For anyone else wanting to use a launch in Sooke there is Sunny Shores and Jock’s Dock. The tax payers of Sooke have already paid for this free boat ramp. Like I said, let’s keep it simple.
