Note 1: Discounts do not apply where rates have already been discounted.
Note 2: A small number of groups offering youth development programs were
previously charged the lowest available ice rental fee. When the current rate structure
was introduced, these groups were placed on a phased -in plan to gradually move them
to the Resident Rate, minimizing sudden increases. As of January 1, 2026, they will
reach the Resident Rate. However, as for-profit businesses, the appropriate
classification is the Commercial Rate (Resident Rate +20%). To complete the transition,
staff recommend a continued phased approach: -10% + CPI in 2027 and again in 2028.
New for-profit groups will be charged the full Commercial Rate from the outset.
