Background/Summary: 

At the April 27, 2017 Education Forum at JFK Middle School, it was identified that one way the City and Parks and Recreation Department can assist schools on their improvement efforts is to waive the fees that are charged at Barracuda Bay for exclusive use of the facility as well as the entry fee. This would be for school incentive trips only.

 

This does have a financial impact on the department. The loss in revenue is approximately $200 per booking and the cost of Lifeguards depends on the length of booking and the number of participants but on average the cost is approximately $300 per booking. We would anticipate 10 bookings per school year. This use would only be during the school day, therefore not impacting other revenue generating programs.

 

There is a mutual use interlocal agreement with the school district that identifies use of Barracuda Bay by the district but does not waive fees.
