Authorization
REQUEST: The Parks and Recreation Department requests that the City Commission
approve continuation of the Department Concessnons program for Fiscal
year 1997-1998 pending normal budget procedures.
PURPOSE: The purpose of this request is to affirm Commission support for continuing this
service as being subsidized by less than nine percent (9%) or approximately
$8,000.00 for another year trusting the amount of this support will decrease in a
reasonably progressive manner.
CONSIDERA TIONS:
. The service is well appreciated by the public to the point a major user group
requested the concession be open for simply their fall league registration day.
. It is believed that a private contractor could not provide the same quantity and
quality of service as is now the "norm" and keep prices and hours of service at
such a level and also make a profit.
· It is proposed that this quality of service is so valuable the small subsidy is
justified.
. Records for the Spring 1997 season show significant increases in income over the
similar 1996 Spring season.
. The closing of the miniature golf course should save nearly half the current
deficit immediately.
FUNDING:
Details of this budget are included in the current Department Budget Request.

CONCESSION ACCOUNTING
DATE:
MAY 1, 1997
We have researched our records for both income and personnel expenditures for the concession
operations from April of 1996 through March of 1997. The results are as follows:
Part Time Personnel
Gross Proceeds
$15,382.54
$67,021.81
We can see already this spring that our personnel costs will remain level and our proceeds will
continue to increase as activity here continues to increase.
Thank you.
