SUHJECT:

Revised Admission Rate.- Due To G.S.T.

Recommend'.tion:

It is recommended that the attacheci revised schedule of Admission
Rates be adopted for 1mplementation, should G.S.T. legislation become
law.
Purpose/Problem
The purpose of th1s "aport 1s to provide the Parks and Recreation
Committee w1th 1nformation and a recommendation regarding a proposal
to revise adm1ssion rates to accommodate the Goods and Serv1ces Tax.

Discussion:
The Goods and Services Tax is currently being debated in the Senate.
Should this legislat1on become law, it will have a dramat1c effect on
most Parks and Recreation services. All services provided by the
Recreation Div1sion w111 be taxable with the exception of most

programs delivered d1rectly by the Divis1on, for ch11dren under the
age of 14 years.

In the case of registered programs, facility rentals and concession
sales, the Goods and Serv1ces Tax will be added on at the point of
purchase and will be accounted for on the sales receipt. However, in
the case of adm1ss1on rates, we feel it is eas1er to role the G.S.T.
into the rate and round 1t up or down to the nearest nickel. This
way, our Cashiers w111 not have to deal with a lot of pennies and
there w111 not be any confusion with regards to what the admission

rates are.

The admission rates for skating and swimming, etc are approved
by
City Council each year as part of 'he annual schedule of fees and
charges. Therefore, these rev1sed rates need to be ratified
Council. Please note that these revised rates only deal with bytheCity
G.S.T. and not inflat1onary 1ncreases. Market and inflation
1ncreases w111 be dealt with under separate cover in the New Year,
when a rev1sed fees ard charge". po11cy is presented for Counc11's

consideration.

Summary:

G.S.T. is currently be1ng debated in the Senate. Should
legislation become law, tt will have a dramat1c effect on the this
services provided by the Parks and Recreation Department. Revised
admission rates (for swimming and skating) that include the G.S.T.
per1od need to be adopted by City Council as part of our approved
