Report CSD-014-22
Report Overview
This report provides Council the recommended rates and fees schedule for all Community
Services facilities, programs, and services for 2023. Following the various disruptions to
services during the pandemic, we are seeing a steady return to more normal levels of activity
across the department.
Following the lifting of provincial and public health restrictions, we are now facing higher
inflation, and ongoing labour shortages. These factors are impacting the costs we incur to
provide our services. Additionally, it is important to set rates and fees that remain affordable
to the residents of Clarington.
The work completed by staff to present these rates and fees has taken into consideration all
these factors. When approved by Council, the rates and fees will be reflected in our 2023
operating budget.
1. Background
1.1 Rates and Fees moved to an annual report in 2021, approving fees to be in place until
September 1, 2022. Subsequently, staff recommended an extension of program and
facility fees up to December 31, 2022, and ice rates up to April 1, 2023, through report
CSD-011-22. Council approved this recommendation through resolution #GG-213-22.
1.2 During our annual rates and fees review, the objective is to ensure services continue to
provide value to the community while, at the same time, remaining fiscally responsible
to our taxpayers.
1.3 Benchmarking is conducted with other neighbouring municipalities to ensure that fees
are set at affordable, reasonable levels compared to the other lakeshore municipalities
across the Region.
1.4 While the effects of COVID-19 have been substantial and have impacted our community
over the past two years, staff has also seen the increased cost of supplies required to
provide services. Affordability of fees, while being mindful of cost recovery played a
significant role in developing the proposed user fee increases.
1.5 Staff reviewed the structure of rates through this reporting cycle with the goal of
simplifying the rate structure by removing redundant rates or combining rates into
categories to blend fees.

2. 2023 User Fees
Methodology and Changes to User Fees
2.1 Staff began reviewing fee structures in May when the CPI was 7.7 percent. Most
recently, the CPI (July to July) in Ontario was 7.6 percent. Staff reviewed the impact of
these significant percentage increases on user fees and potential impacts on
participation. Based on these evaluations, staff has made recommendations on
increases based on affordability, service delivery costs, and current demand for
services. Increases range from 0 percent in cases where programs could not bear an
increase to 10 percent where special events offering food have seen significant cost
pressures to deliver the service.
2.2 The pandemic had a significant impact on our fitness service area. Staff have
undertaken a review of our fitness programs and services, benchmarking
activities/memberships, and evaluating the cost of recovery for each. The goal is to
continue to provide family -friendly and affordable services for the community.
2.3 In January of this year, Red Cross announced they would no longer be offering
swimming programs, focusing solely on humanitarian efforts. As a result, staff
transitioned to the Lifesaving Society program. This will require minor increases in some
aquatic services. Staff have also reviewed our swimming lesson categories and have
updated these categories to streamline the services.
2.4 Staff are proposing an incremental increase to our Parent & Tot and Stick & Puck
activities, with the goal of bringing them in -line with other drop -in fees. There are also
increases in both general interest programs and adult 55+ special event fees due to the
rising costs of supplies, and to better align them with comparative benchmarks.
2.5 Facility room rentals have had a significant restructuring. With the goal of optimizing the
use of our multi -purpose spaces, we are opening currently dedicated rooms in our
facilities for wider community use. While our programs will continue to receive priority in
these spaces, there will be opportunity to permit community rentals, especially during
underutilized times. These changes require restructuring of facility rates as proposed in
this report.
2.6 Staff also propose the introduction of a new commercial rate for many of our indoor
rental spaces. We are seeing an increased demand for private businesses to rent our
facilities. These new rates would reflect the "for profit" nature of these businesses and
would help offset our lower resident and community rental rates. These proposed rates
are consistent with other Durham municipalities.
2.7 Outdoor rental rates were significantly restructured and approved through report CSD-
004-22. As a result, there are minimal changes to this section. To ensure affordability of
Municipality of Clarington
Report CSD-014-22
Page 4
rates a standard 3% increase was applied, except to artificial turf, where a 2% increase
was applied to bring it more in line with comparative benchmarks.
2.8 Administration charges have remained largely unchanged. There has been the addition
of an aquatic leadership discount aimed at encouraging swimming participants to
continue the path to becoming a lifeguard. Staff view this as a key recruitment initiative
in addressing our current aquatic staffing shortage. Staff is also recommending a
change in naming convention from the Membership Access Program to Inclusion
Membership Discount. This change supports Clarington's goal of enhancing community
inclusion diversity and equity.
Challenges and Future Considerations
2.9 Currently we provide significant discounts for programs of services, based solely on age
that does not consider a participant's ability to pay. While age -based discounts can be
important to continue, they can have significant revenue and cost recovery implications.
In many cases, these discounts are applied to registered programs with fixed costs. We
will be undertaking a detailed benchmarking exercise and will be bringing forward
options for Council to consider in the future.
2.10 Presently, we provide several outdoor rental spaces at no charge, including gazebos,
green spaces, and picnic areas. While this is a benefit to the community, we are also
faced with increasing operational costs to manage the permitting and the maintenance
of these spaces. No change to this practice is proposed in this report, however, we will
continue to evaluate this. This may result in the future introduction of nominal fees to
help mitigate the rising costs. This was previously successful when Council approved
the introduction of fees for parent/tot and other skating programs in 2021.
3. Financial Considerations
3.1 As mentioned earlier in this report, the current inflation situation is impacting the cost of
supplies and services needed for the delivery of our recreation facilities and programs.
With approval of the proposed rates and fees, staff will utilize these rates in the
preparation of the 2023 budget submission.
3.2 Municipalities are restricted in the types of revenues they can generate. Property taxes
are the primary revenue source and appropriate for services and infrastructure that
benefit the community as a whole. Another source of revenues are user -fees for cost
recovery. These user -fees are appropriate where there are costs that can be quantified
and benefit a specific person (or group).
3.3 Community services facilities and programs have both a public benefit and well as user
specific benefits. For example, swimming lessons benefit individuals, however, there is
Municipality of Clarington Page 5
Report CSD-014-22
also a community benefit through teaching children and adults water safety and
drowning prevention.
3.4 Financial Services will be working with all departments over the coming year to develop
policies for the application of user -fees. This may require changes to our overall pricing
strategy in the future.
4. Concurrence
4.1 This report has been reviewed by the Deputy CAO/Treasurer who concurs with the
recommendations.
5. Conclusion
5.1 It is respectfully recommended that Council approve the recommendations in this report.
Staff are confident the proposed rates and fees for 2023 reflect the objectives we have
set out in this report, which include providing quality programs and services to our
community at reasonable rates.
