Council updates athletic-field and pool fees as part of fiscal plan
Summary
As part of the fiscal transformation initiative, council approved updated athletic-field rental fees (adding adult fees) and a roughly 10% increase on annual pool memberships; councilors said fee changes reflect cost-recovery goals and longstanding fee schedules last updated in 2020.
As part of the city’s fiscal transformation initiative, parks and recreation staff proposed updated fees for athletic fields and pool users to capture increased demand and better align cost recovery.
Parks staff (speaker 19) told council adult sports organizers have grown in number and that the proposed athletic-field fee adjustments will shift costs so adult programs help cover youth program costs. The council voted to adopt the updated athletic-field fee resolution and repeal the prior resolution from 2020.
Staff also recommended a roughly 10% increase to annual Veterans Memorial Pool memberships while keeping single admission and monthly membership fees unchanged; council approved the pool-resolution as presented.
