City staff summarized results of a parks and recreation survey about a potential kayak kiosk and watercraft services. Rick Lemcool, urban design (first at SEG 441), told council the survey collected 77 responses — a small sample he described as anecdotal — but said results indicate interest in different watercraft in different parks (kayaks in one park, paddleboards in another and limited openness to jet skis in a separate area).

Council members queried apparent inconsistencies in question formats (for example, identical questions presented with different answer scales produced differing responses). Lemcool said staff can analyze the dataset more deeply and that the survey was intentionally concise to encourage participation. "There was only 77 people. It's not optimal, but it is anecdotal," Lemcool said.

Council discussed vendor models, insurance responsibilities and whether the city should partner with private operators; staff said those details would be incumbent upon any vendor and that agreements would specify insurance and operational responsibilities. No decision was taken; staff offered to provide deeper analysis at a follow-up meeting.
