Whitaker, Assistant City Attorneys/ RE: SWIMMING POOL FEES While reviewing your Staff Review Form requesting an increase in the swimming pool user fees at Wilson Park, I learned that in August 1998, the City Council amended the process for establishing fees for the use of City ballfields. It is my recommendation that §97.017 of the City Code be amended in the same manner. This would introduce a greater degree of flexibility into the process, and eliminate the confusion inherent in having multiple and differing methods for fixing the various park fees. I have attached a copy of the proposed language. Let me know if our office can be of further assistance. DJW ATTACHMENT FAYETTEVItLE THE CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE.

D ' COO Mayor B EATH 90WFF, CityClerk FAYETTEVILLE THE CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS 0 DEPARTMENTAL CORRESPONDENCE To: Hugh Earnest, Urban Development Director �n Thru: Connie Edmonston, Parks and Recreation Superinten�eilt From: David Wright, Parks and Recreation Program Coordinator Date: January 30, 2002 Re: 2002 Swimming Pool Fee Increase Background Since December of 1999, Parks and Recreation has been evaluating the prices of admission for the Wilson Park Swimming Pool. After a regional survey showed Wilson Pool 's fees were lower than the regional average, Parks and Recreation Staff began trying to determine if our fees should increase. Traditionally, revenue produced by municipal swimming pools do not cover operational expenses and Wilson Pool is no exception. However, Parks Staff believes Wilson Pool is a unique feature within our Parks System that improves the quality of life in our community. Current History During the 2001 Pool Season, Parks Staff witnessed an increase in many of the pool 's operating expenses. Prices of personnel, chemicals, safety training and cleaning supplies are increasing. These increases are raising the overall expenses of Wilson Pool. These increases, along with the fact that Wilson Pool 's prices are below the regional average, justify an increase in fees for the Wilson Pool. On January 7, 2002, Parks and Recreation Advisory Board approved a price increase proposal. Please see attached form for increased prices. These increased fees, which are in line with regional prices, should raise an additional $ 14,000 in revenue. While this additional revenue will not cover the operational loss at Wilson Pool, it will minimize the loss to cover the increased expenses. Recommendations Parks and Recreation seeks approval of these proposed fees. If passed, these fees will become effective for the 2002 Swimming Pool Season. We also will begin using resolutions to amend our fee schedule. The appropriate language to modify and/or change our current process will be provided to Council by the City Attorney. Attachments: 2002 Proposed Fees 1999 Swimming Pool Regional Survey y . L Fayetteville Parks and Recreation Wilson Park Swimming Pool 2002 Wilson Pool Fee Increase Proposal Admission Fees for Wilson Park Swimming Pool are set by City Ordinance. In 1999, Parks and Recreation Staff conducted a survey that showed Wilson Park Fees are lower than average (please see next page). Parks and Recreation Staff recommends a fee increase that will serve two purposes. The proposed fees will simplify the current price categories and will raise fees to the regional average. Current Fees Proposed 2002 Preschool $ .50 $ 1 .00 Elementary $ 1 .00 $ 1 .00 Jr. High/High School $ 1 .00 $ 1 .00 Adult $ 1 .50 $ 2.00 Group Pass* $ .75 Season Pass for Child $20.00 $35 .00 Season Pass for Adult $35.00 $50.00 Season Pass for Family $50.00 $75 .00 Hourly Rental Fees will be evaluated and determined on a yearly basis, by the mayor or his designee. The fee will be based on the operational expenses for the duration of the rental period. *Group Discounts are for licensed day cares centers. Discounts are only available to day care centers who are approved by the Parks and Recreation Superintendent and schedule their pool visit with Wilson Pool Staff. 1999 WILSON POOL ADMISSION FEE STUDY ANALYSIS In December 1999, Fayetteville Parks and Recreation conducted a survey to determine the admission fees charged at other Municipal Outdoor Swimming Pools. The enclosed survey was sent to 34 cities in the states of Arkansas, Kansas, Oklahoma and Missouri. Twenty surveys were returned providing us with a 59 percent return rate.
