An unidentified Sterling Heights announcer said the city will launch a new, mobile-friendly parks and recreation registration system starting Dec. 1.

The speaker said the system will be "a smoother, faster, totally mobile friendly registration system built to make signing up easier than ever." The announcement said users will still be able to register online or in person but with "fewer clicks and a lot less hassle."

The speaker advised residents to "create your new household account starting December 1," and provided the opening dates for winter registration: "Winter registration opens December 3 for residents and December 4 for nonresidents." The announcement did not identify a department or named official responsible for the system, and no additional details about account setup or where to access the system were provided in the transcript.

City officials did not provide pricing, program-by-program schedules, or technical support information in the recorded announcement. Staff contact information and whether existing accounts will be migrated were not specified. The announcement framed the change as an improvement to the user experience and urged listeners to be ready when the account creation window opens on Dec. 1.

The announcement closed by reiterating the invitation to try the new system: "A new way to register is coming, and we can't wait for you to try it out."
