State Owns Submerged Land Below a Navigable Lake, Municipality Cannot Regulate Construction on Submerged Land (Docks).

The Second Department, in a full-fledged opinion by Justice Angiolillo, determined that where the state owns a navigable lake and the submerged land below the water, the state has the exclusive authority to regulate construction on the submerged land, absent delegation of that authority to the municipality. Town of Carmel v Melchner, 2013 NY Slip Op 01259 [105 AD3d 82], Second Dept 2-27-13
