CC - Item 4C - Park/Sports Facility Use Policies and Fees
ROSEMEAD CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: OLIVER CHI, CITY MANAGER ~%C•~ DATE: DECEMBER 16, 2008 SUBJECT: PROPOSED CHANGES TO PARK/SPORTS FACILITY USE POLICIES AND FEES SUMMARY City of Rosemead parks, pools, and sports facilities are in very great demand by residents, community organizations, youth sports groups, "travel" clubs/teams, schools, non-residents, and City of Rosemead youth and adult sports programs. These facilities include Rosemead Park and Pool, Garvey Park and Pool, and the Jess Gonzalez Sports Complex. The City of Rosemead has not reviewed the policies or fees governing these facilities since 1993. Current fees and policies do not distinguish between non-profit, resident, and non-residents users. While supervision and maintenance associated with these uses costs the City approximately $70,000 annually, we recover less than $15,000 in revenues. Thus, the City funds a significant portion of all uses. A survey of surrounding cities (Attachment A) indicates that existing fees are much lower than those of other cities. This item was brought forward for City Council consideration at the November 18th meeting. At that time, staff was directed to reduce the proposed fee adjustments for residents by 50% for facility rental related costs. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends that City Council approve the proposed facility application including rules and regulations, fee schedule, and cancellation policy, and regular user responsibilities as outlined effective January 1, 2009. ANALYSIS Attached for review is an ,updated application, revised fee schedule, and B). The new application, delineates between user groups and assesses each that account for increased operational and maintenance costs. mandatory liability insurance, as recommended by California Joint Power (CJPIA), and an increase in security deposits.

First, roving staff will supervise sites during evening and weekend use in lieu of assigning a Team Member to each site. Regular user groups would assume responsibility for direct supervision, field preparation, and minimal maintenance of the facilities that they use. All cities surveyed currently operate in this manner. In addition, staff was directed to contact the CJPIA regarding this proposed change regarding use of roving staff. Our insurance carrier has indicated that the City assumes no greater liability in altering supervision of parks and sports facilities. According to CJPIA, there is no expectation by the public due to the irregular nature of facility use and because staff functions often change. Stationary or roving staff can perform similar functions including supervision. PUBLIC NOTICE PROCESS This item has been noticed through the regular agenda notification process. FISCAL IMPACT If the new fee schedule is approved, revenues from resident and non-resident use are expected to increase modestly. Revenues from non-profit groups remain unchanged. However, staff and maintenance costs associated with the non-profit groups will be reduced by approximately $25,000 annually.
