FROM:Michael Kerski, Director, Planning and Development
TO:Mayor and Council Members
Subject:
Rent Fun Agreement for Kayak Station at Quarry Park
Policy/Action Requested:
Approve agreement with Rent.Fun for four bay kayak station to be installed at Quarry Lake and authorize the appropriate parties to execute.
Recommendation:
Approve agreement.
Discussion:

Rent.Fun is a national supplier of rental stations.  They have four clients in Minnesota and more than 100 nationwide.  Bill Delaney, Senior Planner and Landscape Architect, has spoken with other cities using the system, and they have been very satisfied with the product, service and revenue sharing.

 

Quarry Lake is the first location that the city will test.  Longer term, there is the potential for a station along the Minnesota River and potentially Lake O'Dowd.

 

The City Attorney has reviewed the contract and it reflects his changes which Rent.Fun has also agreed to.

Budget Impact:
The initial cost of $18,000 will come from Park Development.
