How did the City Manager decide that $200 a month is an appropriate rate to charge for the use of our pool for practices six days a week and three hours a day? Did he know the rates and guidelines recommended by the Council? If not, why not? What made him decide to ignore the guidelines of the Council and charge only $200 a month? He says it was to encourage Springs kids to join, but the only one who benefited was the owners of MDAC. How could putting $1100 a month in the owners pockets be an incentive for new Springs swimmers? Charging the owners $1100 a month less than what they were paying prior to coming here was NO benefit to any swimmers, only the owners. He is on record as saying he had NO IDEA what other pools charge for practices, so was this just an arbitrary figure he chose? Did he consult with ANYBODY before deciding this? Was the City attorney consulted regarding the legality of that handshake deal?
This is a repeat of the presentation that was made to the Council in Open Forum, for those who missed it.
