The discount for 10 tickets is being reduced from 20% to 15%
rounded to the nearest 25¢). Our objective is to eventually
reduce this rate to 102%.

Although the percentage increases in most areas are not that
great, (approximately 10%), the impact is the greatest in the
areas where the highest dollar values are involved. Typically,
these areas are the ones that need the most attention.

However, the Parks & Recreation Committee may want to propose a
two stage implementation (January 1, 1989 and July 1, 1989) to
help soften the impact.

The proposed schedule of fees and charges should allow us to
ensure that participants are still receiving “value for their
recreation dollar” while increasing our share of “user

revenues .-

During the review process, it became very apparent that the
fees and charges policy itself needs to be reviewed. The
purpose of reviewing this policy would be to establish a
consistent basis on which admission and rental schedules can be
developed that is related to operating costs and recovery
objectives.

Summary/Conclusion:

The attached fees and charges schedule was developec after
thoroughly researching similar schedules in surrouniiz-

communities. It has been designed to start addressing some of the
discrepancies that now exist while still being fair and reasonable.
The 1989 Schedule is designed to ensure that participants will still
feel that they are receiving a good value for their recreation
dollar.
