Aquatic Committee’s Cost Recovery Framework ● Create a cost-recovery framework that is: • Fair to all users • Simple for patrons to understand • Repeatable for staff to implement • Transparent and accountable for the public 31
Aquatic Committee’s Cost Recovery Framework ● Used a per/Splash Model ● Total costs are divided by total admissions; this amount becomes the base rate ● The base rate becomes the single-admission adult fee; all other fees are discounted from that fee ● The total of all discounts equals the amount of tax support needed 32
