City staffers on Tuesday presented the commission a list of recommended admission fees to bump up to follow the city’s cost-recovery model. The proposal includes a $10 monthly membership fee to use the city recreation centers and a $3 drop-in fee, a $3 increase at Sunset Zoo and a $6 fee for pool admission.
Commissioner Karen McCulloh said the price increases are necessary to maintain quality facilities that are critical to the community.
“It’s important for the government to subsidize certain things, and I think the whole point of park and rec is to make our population healthier across the board and to keep kids busy,” McCulloh said.
