STAFF REPORT

RE: Family Aquatic Center fees for Open Community Swim
ISSUE:
To set a fee structure for the open community swim sessions at the Beech Multi-Purpose
Recreation Facilities Family Aquatic Center.
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION:
The opening for the Family Aquatic Center is scheduled for early October. The plans (budgeted)
are for the pool to be operational on a seasonal basis from April to October. This will allow the
staff time to open the pool this year and offer the City residents swim activities for the month of
October and reopen in April. The discussion of the fee rate by the Recreation Advisory Board
members considered this factor when determining their recommendation to the commission. The
Recreation Advisory Board and staff would like to allow all participants of the open community
swim session `free' entrance into the pool. The staff will utilize the User Fee Survey and
information received from pool owners to reevaluate a fee structure for the April reopening. It
will include daily fees, seasonal passes, punch cards, etc. or any ideas that will benefit the staff
operation and the citizens.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
The staff respectfully recommends that the Mayor and City Commissioners allow the open
community swim participants at the Beech Multi-Purpose Recreation Facilities Family Aquatic
Center `free' entrance fees for the month of October and to revisit a new fee structure for the
April reopening and submit this schedule to the commission for approval.
