Operators of city owned recreation facilities don't need to be concerned after the Property and Development committee chose not to renew the lease for the Sargent Park Tennis court

One city councillor says operators of city-owned recreation facilities don’t need to be concerned after the Property and Development committee chose not to renew the lease for the Sargent ParkCourts, which for the last decade have been operated by George Kylar, a major figure in Manitoba’s tennis community.

“We wanted to make sure that there’s the right balance of public coming here and playing without any pressure. Versus something offered for other people, ‘You want to play in a tournament, you want to be in a clinic,” Kylar said. Duncan did offer assurances for other operators saying this situation is unique and the city is not looking to take over other privately managed recreation facilities.
