WAITING FOR REPAIRS Sarah Ford/Shaw Media

Port Byron’s riverfront has been absent of boaters this season, as the docks wait for repairs after 2019 floods heavily damaged the wooden docks, and sent sections of the floating dock down river. The village recently received a grant that will get the docks fixed and functional in time for peak boating season. Article on page 2.
