22 min ago Share Windermere Town Council delayed a decision regarding the boathouse lease extensions to allow time for further negotiations.
Discussions regarding boathouse lease extensions in Windermere have been tabled to allow for further negotiations between the town and boathouse owners.
After hearing from boathouse owners and residents, Town Council members voted during their July 13 meeting to delay a decision until both parties had a chance to work out details in the lease.
The five boathouses in town are located in Palmer Park and are estimated to be more than 100 years old. The town decided to lease them out 20 years ago with an initial 10-year term; those leases then automatically renewed for another decade.
