Facilities revenues includes ice rentals, pool rentals, multi-purpose room rentals, soccer rentals, lacrosse rentals, skating and hockey rentals, concession sales and proshop merchandise sales. Aquatic Program revenues include all pool facilities memberships and swimming activities. Fitness Program revenues include the fitness programs and memberships offered at the Courtice Community Complex and Newcastle and District Recreation Complex facilities. Recreation Program revenues include various recreational activities that are of interest to the pre-teens, teenagers for after school and during school holidays such as day camps, drama club, pre-teen dances, etc. 5.3 The below bar graph illustrates Community Services 4 major revenue groups for the month of June and the monthly budget value with the same period last year for comparison purposes. Comparing Community Services revenues on a monthly basis is not a true indicator of how well its performing as its revenue is more seasonal in nature. 5.4 The graph below shows the Fitness Program revenues is fairly consistent in the same monthly period to last year. The Facilities and Aquatic Program revenue in 2009 is slightly higher than 2008 due to the opening of the Newcastle and District Recreation Complex. It is too early to see how well the Recreation Program revenue is performing as most of its activities occur during summer months. 1505 REPORT NO.: FND-019-09 I $300,000 $250,000 $200,000 ~ $150,000 $100,000 $50,000 $0 ^ FACILITIES ^ AQUATIC PROGRAMS `n FITNESS PROGRAMS ^ RECREATION PROGRAMS 2009 June 2008 June 2009 2008 BUDGET BUDGET PAGE 6 5.5 The following comparison table illustrates the monthly revenue received as a percentage of the monthly budget used in the graph.

Staff will continue with ongoing member recruitment and retention efforts. 5.9 Community Services staff noticed during the 2008 year that some of the programs offered in the Recreation Program were not performing as well as in the past such as its summer trip and day camps. During the 2009 budget process, the camp revenues were reduced in recognition of this. This reduction in revenue was done prior to the economic downturn. Community Services staff has found a similar trend with other Regional Municipalities in addition to other local service providers (ie. Museum). Community Services staff will continue to monitor and market the 2009 line up of summer day camps and hopefully participatory numbers will increase over the next few weeks to be reflected in a future report. 6.0 PLANNING SERVICES REVENUE STATUS 6.1 Planning Services individual revenue sources have been consolidated. Planning Services revenues include Official Plan amendment fees, rezoning fees, site plan fees, subdivision application fees and subdivision/consent application fees. Planning fees do not reflect full cost recovery rates in contrast to those done under Building Fee Legislation. They have been consolidated since the sum total of fees is the key revenue number and individual types of application are difficult to predict. 1507 REPORT NO.: FND-019-09 PAGE 8 6.2 The graph below illustrates for the monthly revenue and budget for June that 2009 revenue is below 2008 year's revenue.

This equates to a reduction of $154,000 or 31 % decrease from 2008 to 2009 budget. The Planning Services revenue actuals for June 2009 are $16,821 and for June 2008 were $28,812. The June revenues as a percentage of each year's monthly budget values: 2009 - 58.3% and 2008 - 69.2%. i PLANNING-ACCUMULATED REVENUE & BUDGET $300,000 _ ----- --- __. _ . ---- ___ __ - _ $250,000 $200,000 ^2009June $150,000 ^ 2009 BUDGET ', ~ $100,000 ^2008June ~ ~ ^ 2008 BUDGET $50,000 $0 1508 20091une 2009 20081une 2008 BUDGET BUDGET REPORT NO.: FND-019-09 PAGE 9 6.4 The Planning Services accumulated revenues year-to-date as of June 2009 are $76,110 and as of June 2008 were $128,978. The accumulated revenues as a percentage of each year's annual budget values: 2009- 22% and 2008 - 26%. This reflects the overall economic activity and the surplus of subdivision applications in the draft approved or processing stages. While fees were paid several years ago, plan review and implementation activities are ongoing. 7.0 SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS: 7.1 In comparing current year's month and previous year's month values several aspects need to be considered such as the time of year/season, economic conditions, weather conditions, investors long term plans, pending legislation and appeals. It is important to keep in mind that Planning fees and Community Services fees are applied to the overall general fund rather than departmental. The development plan review and implementation process involves staff from many departments who play various roles in the process to generate the revenues identified. 7.2 This report is submitted for information purposes. The revenue shortfall as of June 30th and forecasted to the end of 2009 has been addressed in Council report CAO-004-09 on August 31, 2009. The budget values in this report have not been adjusted based on revised forecasts.
