Operating Under the Influence – Famed DUI Attorney Gill Cochran Gives Tips on Boating Safety


Annapolis, Maryland (PRWEB) March 26, 2012

With spring in the air many boaters are heading to the waters for a day of fun. But if alcohol is part of the equation, a great day can turn serious in a matter of seconds. Most fatal boating accidents cite alcohol use as a contributing factor and boaters need to be aware that alcohol can have a greater physical impact on seas than on the land.

?Alcohol impairs your judgment and your ability to operate a vessel safely. Dehydration and the motion and vibration of the boat add to the intensity of your impairment when on the water,? said Gill Cochran, of Cochran, Cochran and Chhabra. ?Balance is one of the first things you lose when you consume alcohol. When you combine loss of balance with the rocking of a boat, the chance of falling overboard increases. The sun causes you to perspire, which removes the water from your body but leaves the alcohol in. This can cause a quicker and higher level of impairment.?

Mr. Cochran says that every boater needs to understand the risks of operating under the influence of alcohol or drugs (OWI).

Here are Sobering Facts from Mr. Cochran:

Beer is NOT less intoxicating than any other alcoholic beverage.
Only time will sober a person, NOT black coffee or a cold shower.
It is NOT easy to tell if someone is impaired. Many experienced drinkers can
hide their impairment, but the effect alcohol has on the body remains.

You are NOT the best person to judge if you are fit to operate a vessel. Your
judgment is one of the first things you lose when you drink.

A boat operator is likely to become impaired more quickly than a driver, drink
for drink.

The penalties for OWI can include large fines, revocation of operator privileges
and serious jail terms? It is illegal to operate a boat while under the

influence of alcohol or drugs in every state.

The Coast Guard also enforces a federal law that prohibits OWI.
This law pertains to ALL boats (from canoes and rowboats to the largest ships).

Enforcement and Penalties

The Coast Guard and every state have stringent penalties for violating OWI laws. Penalties can include large fines, suspension or revocation of boat operator privileges, and jail terms.

Tips for Avoiding a OWI

?Boating doesn’t need any stimulus to make it fun,? said Mr. Cochran. ?Fishing doesn’t need any liquid bait to improve the catch.?

So here are some ideas from Mr. Cochran that will help boaters avoid a OWI:

Take along a variety of sodas, a jug of water, iced tea, lemonade, or take
along nonalcoholic beer.

Take along plenty of food.
Wear clothes that keep you cool.
Plan to limit your trip to the number of hours you can spend on the water
without becoming tired.

Enjoy your outing more by having a party ashore – in the picnic area, in the
Yacht Club, in your backyard – where you will have time between the fun

and getting back into your boat or your car.

If you dock somewhere for lunch or dinner and drink alcohol, wait a
reasonable time before getting in your boat or car.

Be sure to have a sober designated driver as the boat operator.
No alcohol aboard is the safe way to go – remember intoxicated passengers
can fall overboard too.

City Starts Issuing Quarterly Reports

Shelbyville, TN (PRWEB) March 13, 2012

Shelbyville’s council will begin receiving quarterly reports on the city’s budget, hearing the first report of the year during this week’s study session.

City treasurer Jamey Owen briefed council members on what funds were coming in to the city, what was being spent and how the taxpayers’ money was used.

As of Dec. 31, 2011, Shelbyville had a total cash balance of $ 4,338,207 — with an unrestricted balance of $ 2,134,951 and a restricted figure of $ 2,203,255.

Restricted funds are those which are held for a specific purpose, while unrestricted moneys are available for use as needed.

City manager Jay Johnson stressed that the December cash balance “was what it was on that day,” noting that new checks goes out and come in each day.

Owen also presented a series of charts to the council showing the month to month variations of both the restricted and unrestricted balances, also detailing where the money was being spent.

Expenses

A total of $ 1,447,662 was unappropriated in the unrestricted fund, which is where revenue from tax money comes straight into, and are divvied out to the different funds and to cover expenses. Owen said that $ 357,823 was in the general fund, $ 117,775 devoted to stormwater, $ 200,000 into the budget reserve and $ 11,691 going to solid waste.

“When you see unappropriated on your report, that’s the tax revenue section,” Owen explained.

As for restricted cash balances, those funds were split into a dozen categories — with the largest being the city’s fixed asset group, totalling $ 1,084,992.

Major repairs for Shelbyville take up $ 448,283, a total of $ 208,092 is earmarked for state street aid, and $ 204,701 is put aside for capital. Long term debt and hotel/motel is at zero, with state road projects having $ 90,593 earmarked, and $ 31,334 for road improvement.

The city’s drug fund had $ 26,252 set aside, with funds for police equipment at $ 49,007, and $ 30,000 each for the city’s greenway and city TV.

Revenue and taxes

The city received $ 477,215 in property tax revenue for January, with the largest month expected in February. There is 63 percent of Shelbyville’s property tax that have yet to be received, but Owen believes the rest of that should be in by the end of this month when the majority of it is taken in. She also said that many people came in to pay their taxes in December during this fiscal year rather than in January, which was the case in times past.

Shelbyville gets its revenue from a numbers of sources, such as property tax, local sales tax, state shared taxes and in lieu of taxes.

Owen explained that there are four classes of business taxes, with the city’s largest category being class 2 — made up of retail, car dealers and restaurants. Those taxes are due on May 31 of each year.

Taxes for class 1, containing gas stations and convenience stores are due Feb. 28, service businesses such as mechanics, realty agencies and day care have their taxes due on Aug. 31 and class 4, made up of contractors, who have tax payments due on Nov. 30.

Delayed receipts

Owen also explained that business taxes now go to the state and that the city would not see those funds back for several months after they are turned in. The city also receives revenue from tax relief, as well as from permits and fines such as court costs, beer tax, penalties and building permits.

She also said that the year to date fund summary shows for the past six months that the city is “flat on revenue and a lot lower on expenses.” Payroll expenses are also down, she said, as well as being $ 47,860 under in fuel expenses so far this year.

They city is also anticipating two airport grants — one for taxiway engineering at the city’s airport, totalling $ 58,000, which was announced this week, and a grant totalling $ 890,000 for an Airport Capital Improvement Project.

Local sales taxes are also up from last year and the city is improving its grant process, using the research tools of eCivis’ grants management system, and is also working to centralize its grant activity.
