City uses YMCA facilities to host summer programs, saving roughly $14,000 in rental costs
Summary
Staff said summer recreation programs will begin June 1 with registration on track; an agreement with the YMCA to share space for Safety Town and other classes will save about $14,000 compared with school rentals and requires parking coordination.
Bryan and staff confirmed summer recreation programs are scheduled to begin June 1 and reported registration is proceeding smoothly, with only a few transfers for vacations or medical issues. The rec department said it is fully staffed and that interns are in place for summer programming.
The board discussed an interagency arrangement with the YMCA: the city will use YMCA gym space for classes like Safety Town while the YMCA will use the kitchen for daycare, which staff estimated will save approximately $14,000 in rental costs versus using school facilities. Bryan and Rachel will coordinate parking logistics to minimize conflicts during program drop-off windows.
