Further complications in completing installation of a boat dock at Riverview Park on the Ohio River is creating another delay in opening of the pier for public use.
Judge-Executive Perry Newcom lamented the latest delays, the last in a series of stumbling blocks over the past few years. Duck season and early winter fishing are creating a demand for its use. Although it’s in the water, Newcom said the dock is not properly installed and unsafe for use due to some fabrication issues.
Newcom said the installation company out of Paducah is scheduled to be at the river Monday to complete installation of the walkway to the pier.
