Title
Approval of the second reading of an ordinance amending Chapter 86 by adopting membership and rental fees for Das Rec, New Braunfels Recreation Center.
Body
BACKGROUND / RATIONALE:
City Council unanimously approved the first reading of this ordinance on January 22, 2018.
In order to maintain a slightly more conservative approach, Staff proposes slightly increasing monthly rates for adults, youth & seniors by $2.00. The family membership would be set as a 50% discount from the individual rates (2 adults + 2 youth - 50%).
It is also proposed to offer discounts on annual rates during the opening of the facility including:
• Founding Members: 10% discount on annual rate if signed up prior to building opening
• Grand Opening Rate: 5% discount on annual rate if signed up within first three months of building opening
• These special rates would be valid for up to the first two years of membership.
