Resolution /Number: 91-103 DEPARTMENT: Finance BACKGROUND On June 26, 1990 the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 90-17 establishing a fee and service charge revenue/cost recovery comparison system. This cost recovery fee system was a result of a study performed by the Management Services Institute (MSI) on behalf of the City. Using the methodology set forth by Ordinance 90-17 and the MSI cost recovery system, staff has examined the cost of the various services provided by Parks and Recreation and has determined the full cost reasonably borne by the City for such services. At the May 13, 1991 Parks and Recreation Commission meeting, the Commission reviewed staff's recommended recovery percentages. The Commission's recommendations on the recovery percentages have been incorporated into Resolution 91-103. At this time staff request that Council consider the schedule of subsidy levels proposed in Resolution 91-103 for Parks and Recreation Services. Funding for Parks and Recreation services are in direct competition for general tax dollars with so called "essential services" of public safety, streets, and parks maintenance. For this reason, Council must determine the appropriate tax subsidies for the various Parks and Recreation services. Subsidies of certain programs are not only necessary but also appropriate for social and marketable reasons. Leisure, park, recreation and cultural services are very conducive to market forces, being financed primarily by discretionary income by the general public. If rates are set too high, attendance and consequently revenues, will drop, thus possibly threatening the existence of the program. Council must develop a policy determining which programs should be subsidized and how much should be subsidized by general tax dollars for social reasons and for the benefits it offers to the general public. Adapted: *7 — 9 Agenda Item. Upon Council approval of the various program subsidy levels, the City Manager will prepare an Executive Orderstipulating that all provisions of Section 3.32 of the City's Municipal Code have been complied with, and no written appeal has been filed. The approved subsidy levels by Council will provide direction for staff as to the maximum fee the City may charge for Parks and Recreation services. Notice of public hearing for adoption of the Resolution establishing the fee schedule for coat -to -provide -services has been duly published by law for the time prescribed. At this public hearing, any and all persons interested in or objecting to the fee may appear before the City Council to be heard. That Council conduct public hearing and approve Resolution 91-103, and authorize staff to prepare the Executive Order . to be signed by the City Manager to be effective on or after July 19, 1991.
