Manhattan Parks and Recreation officials are looking to present a new fee resolution and cost recovery policy to bring in more money.
Parks and rec director Aaron Stewart on Monday said the possible new policy aims to focus on total cost recovery instead of operational recovery, which is the basis of the current policy. Stewart said the purpose of the new policy would be to reduce the percentage of taxes used for operations by generating more revenue.
“We’re looking to approach the city commission with a fully vetted cost recovery, which includes all fees and services to be set administratively based on this policy,” he said.
