     458.46 May get and fix land for docks; set fees; 
  regulate. 


    A city council may by a two-thirds vote of all its members 
 acquire lands or lands covered with water or buildings, for 
 sites for public passenger docks.  The lands must be acquired by 
 purchase or by condemnation under chapter 117.  A site for a 
 public dock must not be acquired unless the council decides by 
 two-thirds vote of all its members that the dock site is 
 needed.  The council may improve sites acquired for public docks 
 by building and maintaining suitable buildings and suitable 
 piers on the land.  The city may by ordinance provide for the 
 regulation, control, and operation of the docks, buildings and 
 piers, and fix fees for their use.
