Recreation Program Fee Increases and Subsidy Targets
Summary
Youth camps are subsidized far beyond the city's targets under the new fully loaded cost model, so camp fees rise 10–20% this summer with bigger hikes planned for 2027. Scholarship funding is being used for the first time this year to keep programs accessible to lower-income families.

Impact analysis
Fee increases would bring in roughly $101,000 in additional revenue if applied to the full model next year.
General fund taxpayers see more accurate program accounting, while scholarship funds protect access for families who can't afford new fees.
Families paying out of pocket for camp and swim programs will face noticeably higher fees.
