RecreationandParkCommission | 2007-02-08 | 4 | B. Annual Review and Adjustment of Fees for Recreation and Parks - (Discussion/Action Item) Director Lillard reviewed the 2007 fees with the Recreation and Park Commission. Fees to be raised were Adult Softball, Basketball, mainly due to costs for officials (e.g., referee's and ump's); Field Prep Fees due to raises in salaries; and Day Camp due to bus transportation costs. Commissioner Cooper stated that in looking at the surveys adult public swim fees in other cities (e.g., Newark, Union City) were significantly higher. Commissioner's Cooper and Kahuanui would like staff to consider possibly raising fees for adult public swim next year (2008). Commissioner Restagno stated that in looking at the comparisons for Tiny Tot fees Alameda seemed to be at the very low end. Director Lillard stated that in many instances Tiny Tot fees are not realy comparable since the programs vary so much. We are not sold out in any of our sessions and we are generating a lot of revenues. Until sessions are full, he would like to be careful to not price ourselves out of the market. Commissioner Restagno stated that fees could be raised to $5 and still be well within the range of other cities. Commissioner Reeves stated that he would like to keep the childrens programs at a low cost and if fees need to be raised then think about raising adult program fees. Commissioner Cooper stated that one of the great things about Alameda is that the kids programs are not expensive and people can really get their children involved.
