SUBJECT Recreation Program and Fee Policy
EXHIBITS ATTACHED Resolution
RECOMMENDATION Adopt Resolution
FINANCIAL STATEMENT: None
DESCRIPTION In order to facilitate the administrative processes
relating to the development of recreational services, it has been recognized
by Staff that a guiding policy regulating the future development of programs
and their related fees is necessary.
The concept was presented 'to the Park &Recreation Commission on July 17 ,
1984 and they have endorsed the policy to require City Council approval of
any subsidized programs not indicated in the annual budget prior to the
development of said programs .
If a policy of this nature is not adopted, the operation of the Recreation
Department will become quite cumbersome due to the need for City Council
approval of individual programs and classes already indicated in the annual
budget .
The adoption of this policy will allow for the efficient development of
programs and services with appropriate review by the Park & Recreation
Commission and City Council as required.
