A. 
With the understanding that Town slips might be offered/awarded to a waiting list applicant late in the season for a number of reasons, the Town of Barnstable adopts the following pro rate fee schedule for slips awarded after June 30 and prior to November 1 of the calendar year:
(1) 
July 1 to July 31: 1/3 off seasonal rate.
(2) 
August 1 to October 31: 1/2 off seasonal rate.
B. 
The slip with the pro rated fee will be offered to all waiting list applicants in chronological order, beginning at the top. This policy is adopted with fairness in mind for both the person accepting the slip offer and those on the established waiting lists.
C. 
Prior to July 1 of the calendar year, the full fee as noted in the fee schedule shall apply.
D. 
Furthermore, for those slips that are vacated by an assigned slipholder after September 15 and prior to November 1 (with the expectation that he/she will be renewing his/her slip application for the following season), the Harbormaster Division may prorate the slip rental fee commensurate to the balance of the season and to the seasonal fee for the slip.
