2023 RECREATION AND
PARK USER FEE
SCHEDULE
City Council
December 6, 2022
Background
• High level challenges that impact fees:
• Costs increase annually for staff (pay & benefits), contractual, and utilities. • Balance of market demand and covering costs = incremental fee increases.
• Fees include direct costs (staff, facilities, supplies) plus indirect costs (administrative staff and supplies)
• Increased most program fees by 5% to account for staff and supply increases. Did not increase facility and picnic rental fees.
ARPD Cost Recovery Model
• Goal to provide more effective cost recovery balanced with community benefit.
• Improved cost recovery primarily due to reduced expenses and increased participation, with minimal fee increases.
High community benefit – free or low cost
Free Mobile Recreation, Summer Baseball, Mastick Senior Center Group Benefit – covers cost or small profit
Classes, Summer Camps, Tiny Tots, RAP
Individual
Benefit – profit
Sports, Rentals, Specialty Camps
