Rate increases coming to recreation facility fees
The Town of Battleford council approved an overall slight increase to recreation facilities user fees at its meeting Monday.
Parks and Recreation Director Jordan Schechtel presented the Parks and Recreation Committee rate review of all the town’s recreation facilities. He stated in his report the town reviews the rates every two years to make sure they are comparable to other municipalities and also reflect current operating costs.
The proposed rate changes reflect an increase of 5.24 per cent on average overall. Some rates may be higher or lower than that amount, while other rates won’t see any increase.
