$75.00
The purpose of the single admission, swim pass and family pass fees is
to help offset the cost of operating the swim center. It should be
noted that in Fiscal Year 1988-89, the net cost to the City for the
swim centers operation was $60,583, and in Fiscal Year 1989-90, the
net cost was $95,058. For Fiscal Year 1990-91, Staff estimates that
the net cost to the City will be approximately $100,169.
Staff recently conducted a survey of public swimming pools in the
surrounding area to determine the fees charged for admission and
passes. The survey results are as follow:
RECREATIONAL SWIM FEES
Preschool Youth Adult Senior
San Ramon $ .50 $1.00 $1.50 . $1.50
Pleasanton $1.00 $1.25 $2.00 $1.50

As shown, sta~mmends that the recreational swim fee for youth be .
increased to~ to correspond with the average. Although the
preschool and senvpr fees charged by the City are lower than the
average, these age groups account for a very small portion of the
overall attendance~ thus a fee increase ~ould have a negligible effect
on the revenue reCeived at the pool.

Staff recommends that the fee for the family pass be increased due the
increased length of the season. When the initial fee was adopted, the
swim center was open during the months of June, July and August.
Beginning in Fiscal Year 1989-90, the pool opened in April and closed
at the end of September.
Based on the information provided above, coupled with the escalating
operational costs for the swim center, provides cause to increase the
fees as recommended by Staff. The recommended fee schedule for the
Dublin Swim Center is as follows:
o - 5 Years (no change)
6 - 17 Years
Adults (no change)
Seniors (no change)
Family Pass - $85.00
staff recommends that the City Council conduct the pUblic hearing and
adopt the attached resolution amending the fee schedule for the Dublin
Swim Center.
