3.1 Following Council's decision to charge $4.00 per hour for youth games, as outlined
in Report No. CS-1O-98, further refinement of this approved rate has seen the rate
adjusted in increments of as little as ten minutes. The charging for sports fields has
reached a point where various users have been charged a variety of rates, proving to

be quite cumbersome to the Treasury Department for invoicing. For the upcoming
season in 2000, the Public Works Department recommends maintaining the rate of
$4.00 per hour, as approved by Council, but also recommends limiting the minimum
increment to $2.00 per half-hour.
3.2 Field Lining
Currently, the Public Works Department provides field lining on sports fields by
permanently marking lines. Lining the field on a daily basis is no longer necessary.
This permanent lining is done twice a year and there is no charge to the user groups.
4.0 CONCLUSION
4.1 The 2000 fees for sports fields and parks, as shown on Attachment No.1, remain the
same as in 1999 except for the following:
. A minimal charge of 1 hour;
. minimum additional increments of one half hour; and
. the fee for field lining for all user groups be eliminated.
Respectfully submitted,
Reviewed by,
