<br /> Non Res $48 <br /> 22.9% <br />Lesson Res $40 <br /> Non Res $50 <br /> 20.0% <br /> <br />The savings realized by the residents exceeds the City contribution so people are <br />benefiting from City participation. This recreational benefit is not currently available in <br />the City park system so maintaining this program until a swimming pool is available in <br />Ramsey makes good sense. The Ramsey Town Center Development will be bringing <br />more new residents to the City and we should continue to maximize the variety and <br />quantity of recreational opportunities and this program helps this effort. The savings <br />realized by the residents that have participated in the program exceeds the cost to the <br />City~ <br /> <br />The summary provided by the Anoka Parks department is attached. Participation in the <br />program provides reduced rates on season passes for families, reduced rates for swim <br />lessons and reduced fees for the Ramsey Safety Camp. The 2008 rates have been set and <br />a summary is attached. A summary of the rates for lessons at area facilities is also <br />attached. The Anoka Aquatics program has the lowest rates for lessons. <br /> <br />Staff recommends that if the Commission approves continuation of the program then <br />availability of the program be promoted through the Ramsey Resident, City Website and <br />other publications. <br /> <br />Commission Action: <br /> <br />Motion to approve/deny the continued participation in the Anoka Aquatics Program. The <br />Commission decision will be forwarded to the City Council for ratification. <br /> <br />Reviewed by:- <br />Public Works Director/Principal City Engineer <br />Finance Officer <br />Assistant City Administrator <br />Parks Supervisor <br /> <br />P&R: 04/10/08 <br />
