Committee backs ordinance updating rates and fees, including higher nonresident ambulance charges and new pool policies
Summary
The joint committee voted to recommend Ordinance 20021-2026, which raises certain nonresident ambulance charges and updates pool memberships and private-party rental rules; staff explained the changes and the committee approved the recommendation by roll call.
The Maumee joint Finance & Public Service Committee voted to recommend Ordinance 20021-2026, which amends the city's rates and fees schedule to reflect updated ambulance billing rates, police web/FBI check fees and revised pool pricing for the upcoming season.
Finance staff said the ambulance increases follow a third-party biller’s recommendation and affect BLS/ALS and nonresident mileage charges. Staff also proposed aligning police background-check and golf-cart inspection fees with neighboring jurisdictions. On pool fees, staff proposed keeping a family base rate structure (current model $100 first person, $50 each additional) but capping most family memberships at $250, adding a $25 per-person fee beyond a four-person family cap, establishing free admission for 0–2-year-olds, and creating a $30-per-year babysitter membership that requires documentation of association with the family. Private-party pool rentals were proposed at $500 for residents and $600 for nonresidents to cover staff costs.
The committee moved to recommend "ordinance 20021-2026, an ordinance amending rates and fees including ordinance 016-2025 and to adopt additional fees and adopt updated rates and fees and declaring an emergency." The motion passed on a roll call; committee members recorded votes in the affirmative and no dissenting votes were recorded in committee.
The ordinance recommendation will be forwarded to full council for final action.
