Payment

Please review our schedule of boat stall rental fees(PDF, 442KB) for the most current prices. 

Boat stalls are rented annually; however, daily rentals are also available. Boat stall renters may choose to pay annually or via monthly installments.

The City of Oklahoma City offers the following payment options:

  • Current Oklahoma City Utilities customers (water, sewer or trash) may pay for their rental permit fee in a single annual payment or as monthly installments via their monthly OKC Utilities bill.
  • All other rental permit holders must pay using the Accela Citizens Portal (ACA). The portal can only accept one payment transaction at a time based on the invoiced amount. It cannot accept overpayments or partial payments, nor does it store payment information for autopay or monthly withdrawals. 
  • Customers who pay through the ACA have the option to be invoiced monthly or pay the full annual rental permit fee once per year. 
  • For customers with multiple boat stalls, each boat stall will be set up as a separate account and invoiced accordingly. Each boat stall payment will be processed as a separate transaction. 

Boat stall permits auto-renew annually on the anniversary date of the current rental permit unless the permit holder cancels the permit at least 30 days prior to the anniversary date.

To cancel your boat stall rental permit, call (405) 297-2422, Ext. 2.
