Do my taxes support recreation programs?
Programs are 100% self-supported by fees and charges. Almost all of our staff are contracted instructors that are seasonal, and/or part-time. They are paid for by the registration fees that participants pay. The majority of our tax-based annual operating budget is for utilities and maintenance of the park buildings, to keep them clean & safe for our citizens. The portion of our tax-based annual operating budget is less than .01% of the total. It covers administrative staff and a portion of the lifeguard payroll.
