I do believe the association has rules and bylaws that property owners must follow, so check there.

If the dock is new, the state has strict regulations as to length and width of a dock. The numbers of fingers you can have is based on the number of water frontage. Of course if you are a state rep or have ties to one you can do just about anything you want. Believe me, the family been in and out of court with a neighbor on this one!

If the dock is old and grandfathered, you need to broker a deal with the neighbor. Look and see if there is any easement on the deed pertaining to this matter. It may be legit.
