Visitor proposes rentrent.fun kayak and canoe rentals at Maury Lake; council to consider next meeting
Summary
A resident proposed a one-time, $20,000 arrangement with rentrent.fun to place rental kayaks and canoes at Maury (Maury) Lake; the council said it will review details and discuss the idea at the next meeting.
During the public comment period, a resident described a proposal from an online vendor, rentrent.fun, to provide kayak and canoe rentals at Maury Lake adjacent to the Habs Center.
The commenter said the business model requires a one-time payment by the city of $20,000 and that rentrent.fun would return revenue to the city over time; the commenter estimated payback in about five to six years. The speaker said the vendor carries liability waivers and contracts and that the parks department could review other activities separately.
Council members did not take formal action. The commenter said they would provide pricing and further information to council members and that the item would be discussed at the council’s next meeting. No city staff commitment to funding or agreement terms was made during public comment.
