INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this memorandum is to request your signature on the annual lease
with the Dubuque Water Sports Club for a section of Schmitt Island.
DISCUSSlON
The Club has leased a section of Schmitt Island, next to Heron Pond by the Hilton
Garden Inn, for many years. The attached lease agreement is the same as last
year's agreement except for a $10.00 increase in rental fee. The annual lease is a
$545 rental fee. The Club is responsible for building and grounds maintenance
except the City mows the grass and picks up the trash. Club members pay 50% of
the per night camping fee at Miller Riverview Park to camp on the leased grounds.
Camping units are limited to 6 on site and stays are limited to not more than 30
days. Overnight parking of boats is limited to 8, two work boats, and one
Dragon Boat. The Club continues to report increased use by paddle sports each
year.
The lease agreement has been reviewed and approved by City Attorney Barry
Lindahl. Barry said the lease does not need City Council approval since the term is
for one year. The Park and Recreation Commission approved recommending the
Lease at their February 13th meeting. I consulted Maurice Jones, Teri Goodman and
DRA and they advised no work related to Chaplain Schmitt Island was to take place
during the lease term.
I
RECOMMENDATION
I respectfully recommend authorization of the attached lease agreement with
the Dubuque Water Sports Club.
