RIA Property

RIA owns two parcels of mainland property in West Alton:

1. At the corner of Rte 11 and Rollins Road there is an Upper Parking lot with a locked gated trailer storage area.

2. Nowicki Point Rd (off Rollins Rd) a water front Lower Parking Lot with an Association launch ramp and docks. This area, commonly referred to as “The Landing”, provides a locked community boat launch and docks for transportation of RIA members and their guests to and from the island.

Note: Renters and non-owners are not allowed to use any RIA facility.  This includes parking passes, ramp, or trailer lot.
