Fee Schedule for Beech Center Aquatic Complex(Pool)
BACKGROUND:
The Beech Center Aquatic Complex opened to the public during the month of October 2001.
During this time frame, the City did not charge any fees for use of the pool facility.
The Aquatic Complex has been closed since October 31, 2002 for the winter months.
The facility is scheduled to reopen on Friday, March 19, 2002 with a grand opening celebration.
There will be a Hawaiian Luau sponsored by the Ocoee Teen Club, which will consist of
children's games, open swimming, a teen dance, and buffet meal for the general public in the
evening.
DISCUSSION:
The pool will officially open to the public on Saturday, April 20, 2002.
The operating hours while the children are still in school will be the following:

When the children get out of school for the summer, the hours will change to the following:
Tuesday through Friday 11:00 am to 6:00 pm
Saturday 11:00 am to 6:00 pm
Sunday 1:00 pm to 6:00 pm
In order to ensure that this facility meets the needs of the citizens of Ocoee and surrounding areas,
Staff believes a small fee needs to be established to ensure the non-residents are contributing to
the operating expense of the facility.
Staff has contacted other Aquatic facilities and would like to establish the following daily pool
fees:
City of Ocoee Residents
$1.00 for adults
50¢ for children under 18
Non-Residents of the City of Ocoee
$2.00 for adults
$1.00 for children under 18
The admission fee will also allow for a check-in of all users of the Aquatic facility and help to
ensure proper supervision is taking place.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Commission approve the fee schedule for the Beech Center
Aquatic Complex.
