MEMORANDUM OF RECOMMENDATION
DATE: April 13, 2026
TO: Licenses and Fees Committee
FROM: Jodi Saylor, Volunteer, Events & Program Coordinator
RE: Barkers Vendor Cottages Rental Fees
Background
The City of Superior Parks, Recreation & Forestry Department is excited to introduce a new
infrastructure initiative at Barkers Island that will enhance community events, support local vendors, and
expand opportunities for nonprofit organizations and small businesses throughout the year: the Barkers
Island Vendor Cottages. These cottages were built with a grant from the Tourism Development
Commission as a way to not only enhance our events but to also bring in more tourism from those
traveling to and through Superior.
These purpose-built cottages will be available for rent through large community events, nonprofit
organizations, and food and merchandise vendors and general enhancements to the event space. They
will also be available for special events—ranging from Dragon Boat races to weddings—to elevate event
offerings. Designed with flexibility and accessibility in mind, the cottages will provide a professional,
weather-conscious space while improving overall experience for both vendors and visitors at Barkers
Island and beyond.
There will be a total of four cottages: two measuring 10' x 12' and two measuring 8' x 8'. The two larger
cottages were completed in time for the 2026 Lake Superior Ice Festival and were utilized by one
nonprofit organization and one small bakery business. The two smaller cottages will be completed this
spring in time for summer events.
While the cottages will have a permanent location in Barkers Island Festival Park, the two smaller units
will be movable within Barkers Island at no charge. This flexibility will allow event organizers to
relocate the cottages to areas such as the beach or boat launch, upon request. Guidelines will be
established outlining when relocation is permitted and would require only City staff to perform the move.
Due to potential impacts on the structures, relocations are not anticipated for every event. We may
choose to also offer moves to city property locations off Barkers Island such as The Lot or the Princess
Theater Lot, for a fee of $1,000. Again, the intent would be to minimize moves as much as possible to
maintain the structure of the buildings.

Fee Structure
We are seeking approval of the following rental fee structure, which will allow the cottages to be utilized
for a variety of events and purposes.
Rental Information and Pricing
Event Type Large
Cottage
Small
Cottage
Non-City Event $50 $25
City Event (i.e., 4th of July and Ice Festival) $100 $50
Makers Market Annual Rental – May 1 to October 1
(All 4 cottages) $860 fixed fee
Moving Fee for moves off Barkers Island
(small cottages only, must be done by city staff) $1,000 fixed fee
Electricity is included in the above pricing.
Large events wishing to utilize multiple cottages for two or more days may work with the Parks,
Recreation & Forestry Department on a case-by-case basis to establish appropriate pricing.
The Parks, Recreation & Forestry Department reserves the right to adjust fees in future years in
alignment with inflation and operational costs.
Security Deposit
A refundable $100 security deposit per cottage is required. The deposit will be returned provided the
cottage is left clean and free of damage.
Conclusion
I recommend that the fee schedule outlined above be approved for the rental of the Barkers Island Vendor
Cottages. Rentals will not be processed through the standard reservation system; instead, an online
application form will be used to ensure appropriate use and alignment with the intended purpose of the
cottages.
This fee structure will not only support access to the cottages but will also generate revenue to offset
maintenance costs and support long-term improvements to Barkers Island and its event amenities.

CITY OF SUPERIOR COTTAGE RENTAL GUIDELINES UPDATED: 04/2026
Barkers Island Cottages
Rental Guidelines & Pricing
Introduction
The Barkers Island vendor cottages were developed to provide a comfortable, attractive, and affordable
option for vendors participating in events at Festival Park. These structures offer protection from wind
and weather, making them especially valuable during colder months and winter festivals. With built-in
service windows, shelving, lighting, and heating, the cottages provide a more efficient and professional
alternative to traditional tents while helping create a welcoming marketplace atmosphere for visitors.
Cottage Uses
The cottages are flexible spaces that can support a wide variety of events and activities. Their size, service
windows, and weather protection make them ideal for both vendors and event support needs.
• Festivals and large community events
• Farmers markets and artisan markets
• Food and beverage vendors (coffee, hot chocolate, snacks, specialty foods)
• Event information booths, ticket sales, or registration/check-in
• Nonprofit or community organization booths
• Merchandise sales for concerts or festivals
• Activity stations for family events (crafts, games, etc.)
• Wedding or private event support spaces
• Event headquarters, volunteer check-in, or sponsor booths
Cottage placement will be determined by the Parks, Recreation & Forestry Department and may vary
depending on event layout and site conditions.
Renters are responsible for obtaining and complying with all required state, county, and city permits and
licenses. Renters assume all responsibility for activities conducted within or around the cottage during the
rental period.

• Front service window with folding stainless-steel service shelves (interior and exterior)
• One side door

Rental Period
Cottages are rented on a per-event, per-day basis unless otherwise arranged. Overnight use is strictly
prohibited.
Renters may be granted access to the cottage(s) up to 24 hours prior to the event, depending on
availability and operational needs. All equipment and materials must be removed at the end of the rental
period unless prior approval has been granted.
The City of Superior reserves the right to cancel or relocate cottage reservations due to weather, safety
concerns, operational needs, or other circumstances beyond its control.
Electrical
Cottages have electrical service available through a generator or RV electrical pedestal connection. Each
cottage includes interior and exterior lighting and multiple 110-volt outlets.
Vendors must provide any necessary extension cords for interior use and additional equipment. High-
draw cooking equipment may require prior approval. The City reserves the right to restrict equipment
that exceeds electrical capacity. Vendors are responsible for maintaining generator fuel, connection cords
and the proper operation and loads to prevent overload and tripping of the electrical system. 30 AMP
maximum continous load allowed.
Heating & Cooling
The large cottages include wall-mounted heaters suitable for winter events. Vendors should still plan and
dress appropriately for cold weather conditions.
Small portable heaters may be used in the small cottages if they are approved for indoor use. Window air-
conditioning units may be installed in the rear window only. Fans may also be used as needed.
Renter Responsibilities
Renters must:
• Leave the cottage clean and free of garbage
• Remove all equipment and supplies after the event
• Not attach screws, nails, or permanent fixtures to cottage walls inside or outside
• Use shelves only for service (not for sitting or standing)

1. Introduction:
The Superior Police Department (SPD), through its COAR + team, is recommending the Public Safety
Committee and the Superior City Council to accept the grant from the Wisconsin Department of Justice in
the amount of $43,692. The Superior Police Department received notice of this awarded grant on March

MEMORANDUM
Date: April 9, 2026
To: Public Safety Committee and Superior City Council
From: Jennifer Stank, Coordinated Response specialist, Superior Police Department
RE: Indigo, Independent Living Center, Services Agreement
1. Introduction:
The Superior Police Department (SPD) is requesting the Public Safety Committee and the Superior City
Council to enter into a services agreement with Indigo, an Independent Living Center in the estimated not
to exceed amount of $39,000.00.
2. Background:
SPD has partnered with Indigo since November of 2023 to provide Certified Peer Support Services to
individuals in our community who struggle with substance use disorder and/or mental health Issues.
The City of Superior Police Department, through its COAR+/Pathways to Hope Program, is looking to
continue the Certified Peer Support Position through its partnership with Indigo. Back in 2023, SPD and
Douglas County Treatment Court entered into a partnership with Indigo to add a certified Peer Support
Specialist to our programs. This position has seen a lot of success and value and has identified a larger
need in our community.
The COAR +/Pathways to Hope Program offers community support for housing, crisis information, mental
health resources, aging and disability resources, children and family services, and health information and
resources.
The Peer Support Position, through Indigo, specifically meets with each participant, assists with Treatment
Court, and provides participants with assistance with paperwork and phone calls. This position also assists
in finding and securing further community resources for participants.
Due to the unique nature of these services and the successful previously provided services, SPD is
requesting the Committee and Council waive the bid procedure and enter into an agreement with Indigo
based on Sec. 2-380 of the City of Superior ordinance:
Sec. 2-380. - Procedure for purchases of services
(6) Nothing in this article shall prohibit the common council from accepting a proposal other than the
lowest cost proposal, rejecting all proposals, requiring resubmission of proposals or authorizing a contract
for services without requesting proposals. The Common Council may authorize the department head to
conduct negotiations with any persons submitting a proposal after the consideration of all proposals for the
purpose of obtaining a better price, higher quality or additional services.

the Public Safety Committee on September 18, 2025, and by the Superior Common Council on October
21, 2025.
4. Recommendation:
I am recommending the Public Safety Committee approve the request by City of Superior Police
Department, through its COAR +/ Pathways to Hope Program, to waive formal bid requirements and enter
into the agreement with Indigo for the estimated not to exceed annual cost of $39,000.00.
