March 29th, 1979 TO: Mayor and Council FROM: Leisure Activities Committee On ee area me ae tent mee om ote ene IVEM NG. 1 = Rental Rates Each year the Committee revicws rental admission rates for the different Recreation facilities. This year we increased rates by 5%. The Committee feels that the proposed rates are fair user charpes and therefore not an unjust charge to the public. However, there are a few exceptions to this 5% increase, those being commercial hockey rates, the adult admission to the arena and indoor pool, the adult Sroup rental race for the indoor pool, and the family rate for the pool and arena. These rates were increased by more than 5% in keeping with rates in surrounding municipalities. One other point which should be noted is that the Aquafit rate be abolished and that repular admission rates apply for Aquafit, The Committee also discussed the question of "set-ups" for dances, weddings and meetings, which is presently being done by the maintenance staff. Due to maintenance cut backs the Committee recommends that: lL. "Set-ups" for dances, weddings and meetings be done by the froup using the facility and not by the maintenance staff. The Committee also recommends that: 2. The attached 1979 Proposed rates be adopted by Council. KJT/bh
