Hanson COUNCIL Beverly Scalze 8111 Blesener Rick Collova Jim LaValle ADMINISTRATOR Joel R. Hanson On Wednesday, November 20, 1991, the Recreation Committee consisting of Beverly Scalze, Gene DeLonais, Steve Morelan, Ken Wehrle, and myself met to further discuss the issues involving the restructuring of the Recreation Department. Based on this meeting, our recommendations are as follows: * All recreation fees are to be collected by the City. It should be noted that the present $8 fee now collected by Little Canada Recreation Association (LCRA) is not new money. * New program fees are to be established in order to generate 100% of the increased staffing costs associated with the use of full -time personnel and assistants in the City's Recreation Department. This recommendation is contingent upon the fact that new fees must still be competitive with those of other jurisdictions. * When considering the use of revised program fees, the 90% of existing participation level category should be used to determine new revenues available to offset increased costs ($20,486). It is noted that at the 90% level, approximately $20,486 of new revenue is generated. This will fund a full -time position at a salary of $29,000 or less and two assistants, or it would fund a salary of up to approximately $35,000 for a full -time position with one assistant, or it would fund a salary of over $40,000 for a full -time position with no assistants. 1516g 75
