Old fashioned greed.
In this case the town had visions of a steady flow of monthly fee's and didn't want to give the competition a chance.

That is the real problem with cities/towns doing something like this. The potencial for abuse is high and if your have elected officials that aren't quite above board (naw, could never happen) it will happen at some point.
