69. By the consent of the people
No force or fraud required.

Perhaps the lake is suffering from the tragedy of the commons and the people feel a private owner would better take care of it.

Perhaps the people need money for another desired project and one of them is willing to trade his money for the exclusive use of the lake.

Perhaps it is an unpopulated area and the people are encouraging people to move there, allowing anyone to stake claim to resources.
