A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
SANTA ANA APPROVING A COST RECOVERY POLICY
FOR THE PARKS, RECREATION AND COMMUNITY
SERVICES AGENCY
WHEREAS, in March 2019, the City's Parks, Recreation and Community Services
Agency ("PRCSA") retained a consultant Greenplay, LLC ("Consultant") to assess all
PRCSA programs and deliver a service and financial sustainability study to the City.
WHEREAS, on September 15, 2020, the City Council was presented the final
Service and Sustainability Report ("the report") prepared by the Consultant.
WHEREAS, one of the recommendations contained in the report was for the City
to adopt a formal policy regarding pricing and cost recovery for PRCSA programs.
WHEREAS, the Consultant recommends a cost recover policy as a strong
foundation for sustainable financial management strategies. According to the City's
Consultant, the policy will allow staff to (1) recognize where a subsidy is being applied,
and determine whether it is at an appropriate level; (2)justify a pricing schedule, including
fees for existing and new services; and (3) evaluate service delivery mechanisms, all to
maximize services to the public while assuring equity in service delivery; and
WHEREAS, the PRCSA in consultation with the City's Consultant has created a
cost recovery policy.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Santa Ana,
