Council declines staffing increase for recreation but approves new fee schedule for recreation complex
Summary
A proposal to add two full‑time recreation positions failed for lack of a second; the council separately approved an updated fee schedule for the new recreation complex after a roll call vote with mixed support.
Council members considered two items affecting the parks and recreation department on June 15: a proposed staffing level amendment and an updated fee schedule for the new recreation complex.
City Manager Manning described the staffing amendment as an effort to add an outreach coordinator and a weekend facilitator coordinator, which would raise full‑time staffing in recreation to 11 positions. A motion to approve the staffing amendment was made but received no second and therefore did not advance.
Separately, the council reviewed and voted on an updated fee schedule for the new recreation complex. After a roll call vote that produced mixed responses among council members, the motion to adopt the fee schedule carried. The transcript does not record specific fee amounts or an itemized schedule; City Manager Manning described the change as an update tied to the new complex.
The clerk announced the respective outcomes: the staffing amendment failed for lack of a second; the fee schedule update was approved and will be implemented by the parks and recreation department.
