R: Todd noted that the only programs that typically operate at a loss are the Special <br />Recreation Program and Central Playground, largely due to the wage and staffing <br />situation. All other programs either break even or profit slightly. <br />Q: Cheryl asked if there is a set range for resident vs. non-resident rates. <br />A: Todd said no, the variance has just evolved over the years. <br />Q: Linda asked Jason if we currently have a way of tracking resident vs. non-resident <br />program participants. <br />A: Jason stated that program evaluations and registration invoices are currently utilized to <br />help track these numbers. <br />Q: Randi inquired if we should increase the program for this year. <br />Q: Michael asked when the last increase was. <br />A: Jason stated the last increase was last year; we went from $65 to $75. <br />ndrd <br />Q: Michael wondered if with the increase, do we look at offering discounts for 2, 3, etc., <br />child in order to stay competitive, yet not loose faithful patrons. <br />A: Todd suggested we consider revamping the program for 2003. <br /> <br />This marked the end of Jason’s program report. <br /> <br />FEE REVIEW / INCREASE DISCUSSION <br />? <br /> <br />Recreation Programs <br />Fees were increased by 5% Resident and 10% Non-Resident; with the exceptions of Special <br />Recreation which will remain the same, Central Playground which will increase by $5 <br />Residents and $10 Non-Residents, and Tackle Football Fee which will increase by $5 for both <br />Residents and Non-Residents (the Tackle Football Equipment Rental Fee and Jersey Fee will <br />not increase) <br />*Randi made a motion to increase Recreation Program fees, with exceptions noted; seconded <br />by Axel. All were in favor; motion passed. <br />? <br /> <br />Pool Programs <br />The sub-committee proposed that the Rec Commission accept the fees as proposed by Sandra <br />Andrews, the Pool Supervisor (as per program fees spreadsheet presented to Commission). <br />Sandra based her increases on other community fees and what the charter allows. <br />*Axel made a motion to maintain the Senior Pool fees as status quo; seconded by Randi. <br /> All in favor; motion passed. <br />*Axel made a motion to increase Pool Group Rental fees 5% Resident, 10% Non-Resident; <br /> seconded by Bill. All in favor; motion passed. <br />*Randi made a motion to approve Pool Program fees as proposed by the Pool Supervisor, <br /> with the exceptions noted to Senior Pool fees and Pool Group Rental fees; seconded by Bill. <br /> All in favor; motion passed. <br />? <br /> <br />Rink Programs <br />It was highly suggested by Betsy Drenski, Rink Supervisor, not to increase the Rink Program <br />rates, as she had increased her rates significantly last year. Todd concurred with this <br />suggestion. Betsy also noted a correction of the Learn to Skate prices listed on the <br />spreadsheet presented – 6 week program $39.00 Resident, $49.00 Non-Resident. <br />*Bill made a motion to accept the Rink Program fees as they currently stand, with the <br />correction noted; seconded by Randi. All in favor; motion passes. <br />Page 3 <br /> <br />
