On Monday night, the Rock Island City Council voted unanimously to give credits to boaters affected by extreme flooding at Sunset Marina.
The credits would save boaters hundreds of dollars and cost the city more than $30,000, according to estimates from the city and F3 Marina, the Milwaukee-based company that took over management of the Rock Island marina last fall.
The vote was prompted by a joint memo from Public Works Director Mike Bartels and Denise Browning, general manager of Sunset Marina through F3, that recommended the Council approve the credits.
