DATE: | 6/18/07 STAFF:| SPICKARD RECREATION DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDED FEE INCREASES FOR FISCAL YEAR 07-08 [x] INFO n ACTION RECOMMENDED ACTION : Review staff recommendations for proposed fee increases and forward any comments to the City Council. ITEM EXPLANATION : Annually the Recreation Department reviews fees charged for programs, field usage, lights, and facility and field rentals. Neighboring cities and like organizations are surveyed to ascertain the fees charged for similar services. The highest fee and the lowest fee charged for a particular program/service are disregarded, and the remaining are averaged to determine the "market rate." Carlsbad fees are not entered into the equation. As a part of the Recreation Department's annual review of fees, the following items were identified as areas that should be considered for a fee increase or for implementation of a new fee. These recommendations are based upon keeping our fees in line with current market rates and our goal to strive for a 60% self sustaining percentage for all program operations, except for Aquatics, for which Council has set a goal of 45% self sustaining. The proposed increases are identified and summarized below. Aquatics Staff is recommending that rental fees for Carlsbad Unified School District be raised from $5 per lane/hr. to $6 per lane/hr. and that nonprofit users have an increase from $6 per lane/hr. to $7 per lane/ hr. An increase for commercial for profit users from $10 per lane/hr. to $11 per lane/hr. is also being proposed. An increase in Resident Pre-beginner and Learn to Swim Lessons are also being recommended from $40 per lesson to $47 per lesson. The same swim lessons for Non Residents are being recommended to increase from $60 per lesson to $67 per lesson. Anticipated increase to the Aquatics revenue account is estimated at $23,400. Athletic Fields In the past, Classification "C" ball/soccer field users (Exhibit 1 - pg. 12), Carlsbad Resident Not for Profit with paid management, were not charged a fee for field usage. In an effort to bring this classification into line with all other groups being charged for rentals, staff recommends that "C" Classification field users be charged $8 per hour. Anticipated revenue generated is approximately $350 annually. n AB # 0607-6 Page 2 Athletic Field Lights All user groups, except for Resident Not for Profit Organizations with non-paid management, Classification "B" (Exhibit 1 - pgs.10 & 12), pay the full cost of lights or higher, depending on their Classification. On average, it currently costs $12.47 per hour to light a field. Staff is recommending an increase in charges for light fees from $7 to $8 per hour. This proposed increase will generate approximately an addition of $13,500 toward the field light bills. Adults Sport Fees Staff recommends that a $3 fee be charged for player I.D. Cards that are submitted after the soccer registration deadline. Initiating this fee will generate approximately $2,000 in revenue. Staff further recommends implementing a misconduct card for adult soccer league play. When a player is issued a yellow card, they will be required to pay a $25 misconduct fee before the next game. If a red card is issued, the player will be suspended for a minimum of one game and required to pay a $35 fee. This fee will assist with keeping play more sportsmanlike and is estimated to generate $150 per year. Youth Sports Fees Youth Sports is recommending instituting a late registration fee of $25 per child. This is anticipated to generate approximately $1,250 in revenue annually. Carrillo Ranch Fees Current and proposed fee increases are a follows: CLASSIFICATION A B C D E F CURRENT FEE CABANA AND POOL AREA N/C $525 $630 $735 $895 $1 ,050 PROPOSED FEE CABANA AND POOL AREA N/C $575 $695 $810 $985 $1,155 AB # 0607-6 PageS CLASSIFICATION A B C D E F CURRENT FEE PATIO AREA N/C $210 $315 $420 $525 $630 PROPOSED FEE PATIO AREA N/C $230 $350 $460 $580 $690 Projected increases in the number of rentals, along with increased rental fees at Carrillo Ranch, will generate an estimated $20,700 in revenue annually. Senior Softball North County Senior Softball (NCSS) has been using City fields since 1983. In 1994 they were considered a "D" category with a fee of $5 per field per hour. Fees were increased and after several pleas to individual Council Members and the former Parks & Recreation Director it was agreed that NCSS pay $5 per game per field. This fee was not approved by the City Council and did not become a part of the annual fee review. NCSS has continued to pay that fee and exclusively played at Calavera Hills fields since this time. North County Senior Softball (NCSS) is the only Senior Team utilizing Carlsbad fields. They exclusively utilize Calavera fields during non-peak hours. In discussing fees with NCSS it was brought to staff's attention that most players are on a fixed income and they would not be able to afford the "D" Classification Fee of $15 per hour (Exhibit 1 - pg.12). Many NCSS players are non-residents due to the factor that not all Seniors are physically fit enough to be able to play softball. Therefore, they must draw players from throughout the area to build a league. After much consideration, staff is recommending that NCSS be allowed to continue to play their games during non-peak hours, non weekend hours at Calavera Park for a recommended fee of $5 per hour/field. This fee does not include the preparation of the fields. Synthetic Turf Deposit In consideration of the high expense to repair synthetic turf, staff is recommending that the deposit to play on these fields be raised from $500 to $1,000 per application. Staff Fee The department currently charges $15 per hour/staff person when an event/rental is outside of the regular hours of operations. Many times additional staff is brought in to work for the sole reason of support to an event/rental (set up). Staff recommends that in addition to the staff fee of $15 per hour/person for after hours rentals, that renters be charged the $15 per hour/person when staff is brought in to specifically support a rental. This will generate approximately $4,500 to cover staff costs. AB # 0607-6 Page 4 FISCAL IMPACT: The projected increase in revenue will be approximately $65,850 annually if the proposed fee increases are approved.

Community sports organizations that qualify as a "U" classification are invited to the field allocation meetings prior to their regular season. Field allocation meetings are held typically around October/November and May/June each year. A minimum of 150 participants is required to constitute a league. Recreation staff will determine field allocations if league representatives are unable to reach an agreement. Thirty (30) days prior to ballfield allocation meetings, community sports organizations are required to submit their projected field needs for their upcoming season. Projected field needs should include pre-season, opening day, practices, regular season games, and proposed tournaments.

All resident sports organizations are required to submit their membership rosters prior to each season in order to prove residency status. Recreation staff uses the previous year's final resident membership figures submitted by each organization to assist in determining the current year's allocation of fields. Recreation Staff will return rosters once classification is determined. Once the classification determination has been made by staff and approved by the Recreation Director, the decision is final. If a current "d" classification organization does not meet the 70% residency requirement, the group will be given a lower category status and charged fees for ballfield use. A list of proposed activities for special events such as opening day, must be submitted to the appropriate park supervisor ninety (90) days prior to the event. It may be determined that a City Special Event permit is required. Requests to use a snack bar facility need to be submitted at the field allocation meetings. If the operation of the snack bar is subcontracted by the league to an outside business or individual, then written permission from the league, a City of Carlsbad business license and appropriate liability insurance is required. Approved proof of liability insurance naming the City and/or any school district as additional insured is required prior to usage of athletic fields. Original certificates of insurance are necessary. A $5 fee will be assessed each non-resident player on teams and/or organizations in classifications "B" and "C" that reserve ballfields in excess of 30 calendar days per season.
