DEPARTMENTAL REPORTS 3. AB #504-3 RECREATION DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDED FACILITY FEE INCREASES AND PROPOSED NEW FEES FOR FY 2004-05 - After staff presentation and public comment from representatives of two community youth sports organizations, the Commission approved a staff recommendation for new and increased facility fees with one exception. The exception included a recommendation that the proposed sports field night lighting fee for non-profit resident groups not be implemented until January 1, 2005, and that the fee be established at $5 per hour. The Commission recommended deferral of the fee increase until January 1, 2005, because the majority of youth sports leagues have completed their sign-updregistration period for the Fall season (August - December). Typically, individual registration fees are determined in part, based upon known costs that the leagues are required to offset, i.e., lighting fees, etc. The Commission acknowledged that imposing an additional fee at this time would cause an unusual hardship for the sports organizations and their ability to operate within existing budgets established for this calendar year. The recommendation was approved by a vote of 5-0 with one abstention (Comstock). cc: City Manager Assistant City Manager Department Heads Commission Staff Liaisons PRC File EXHIBIT 1
