AGENDA REPORT
TO: The Parks and Recreation Commission
FROM: Jeremy Laurentowski, Parks and Recreation Director
BY: Stephanie Anderson, Recreation Services Manager
DATE: 11/06/2023 Regular Meeting
SUBJECT: Consider Recreation Programs Cost Recovery Summary
Fiscal Year 2022-2023
BACKGROUND
On January 18, 2012, the City Council approved the Recreation Programs and Services
Cost Recovery Policy (Policy). The Policy was revised in 2016 to include Active Adult
Center programs and was renamed “Recreation and Active Adult Programs and Services
Cost Recovery Policy”. This report includes only those programs operated by the
Recreation Division.
The Policy defines costs, revenue sources, program categories, and recovery levels.
Costs reported include direct costs (costs charged to the programs’ line-item budget and
part-time staff costs) and indirect costs (full-time staff costs and Recreation Division
overhead costs such as facility use and general department supplies).
Each program offered by the Recreation Division is assigned a program category based
on factors including type, purpose, and program structure. Program categories are placed
into a recovery level. There are five recovery levels, ranging from level 1 (high subsidy)
to level 5 (minimal subsidy). The Policy establishes both the minimum cost recovery and
target cost recovery requirements for each program category. Both the minimum and
target amounts are noted in the cost recovery summaries in this report. Programs that
are unable to meet the minimum cost recovery will be reviewed for consideration of
appropriate action, including restructuring or eliminating the program. The City Manager
is authorized to exclude individual programs from the requirements of the Policy. The
Policy requires annual reporting to the Parks and Recreation Commission and Moorpark
City Council, including whether programs met their cost recovery goals.

DISCUSSION
This report serves as a financial summary of Recreation Division programs for the fiscal
year 2022/23. The seasons included are summer 2022 (June through August), fall 2022
(September through November), winter 2023 (December through February), and spring
2023 (March through May).
Included in this report are brief narratives for each program; financial summaries for each
program, including comparison figures from the prior two fiscal years; a summary listing
of programs based on their status of meeting cost recovery goals; and staff recommended
action plans for those programs not meeting their minimum recovery goals. All figures in
this report are rounded to the nearest dollar. The full-time staff costs for the 2022/23 fiscal
year programs are calculated based on time accounting recorded by full-time recreation
division staff. Full-time staff costs calculations include salary and benefits. It should be
noted that full-time staff costs associated with non-recreation related activity (such as
assisting other departments with their projects), paid breaks, and annual leave are not
included in these calculations.

SUMMARY TABLES
While there is no minimum cost recovery requirement for the Recreation Division as a
whole, it is useful to consider the performance of the Recreation Division as a whole. It
should be noted that these tables do not include unallocated costs, such as full-time staff
costs associated with breaks, leave time, and working on projects not associated with
Recreation, and facility costs for hours that facilities are unused. The table below
summarizes the total performance for Recreation Division programs combined with
rentals managed by the Recreation Division.

RECREATION PROGRAM NARRATIVES AND FINANCIAL SUMMARIES
3RD OF JULY FIREWORKS EXTRAVAGANZA
The 2022 Fireworks Extravaganza was held on Sunday, July 3 at the Arroyo Vista
Community Park. Gates opened at 4:00 p.m. and the event
concluded at approximately 9:30 p.m. Event activities
included live music by Decadent Decades and The Smokin’
Cobras, three food courts, inflatable attractions, the
presentation of the American Flag, and an aerial fireworks
display.
Overall, the event ran smoothly with no significant
incidents. One improvement from last year was the
reinstatement of the 3rd food court, which was eliminated in
2021 due to lack of available food vendors (the COVID -19
pandemic has a significant impact on the food truck
industry). Another improvement at the 2022 event was
ticketing. Due to COVID-19 restrictions in place during the
planning phase of the 2021 event, presale tickets were
initially required (previously, only cash gates sales were
taken for this event.) In 2021, tickets were sold via an application called Ticketleap.
Tickets were scanned using the Ticketleap app on mobile phones. While pre-ticketing
was successful overall, the time it took to scan tickets was too slow, at times resulting in
traffic backups onto Tierra Rejada Road. In 2022, the City recreation software (RecTrac)
was upgraded, including adding a Point-of-Sale module that includes ticketing. Tickets
were sold through RecTrac for $8.00 per person, and event ticket scanners were rented

to improve the ticket scanning process. Additionally, for the first time, an on -site parking
fee was implemented. On-site parking passes were sold for $5.00 per vehicle, with 100
of the passes designated for the disabled. While parking on -site required the presold
parking pass, walk-ins who did not prepurchase tickets were allowed to purchase
admission for $10.00, cash only at the gate.

the morning. The registration fee was $15, with a $3 discount
for early registration. The event ran smoothly with positive

CONCERTS IN THE PARK
The 2022 Concert in the Park series
featured four performances: Retro Station
playing oldies and dance music on June 4
(650 attendance), the Moorpark Symphony
Orchestra on July 16 (400 attendance),
Upstream playing reggae on August 6 (350
attendance), and Electric Vinyl playing
classic rock, originally scheduled for
September 10 but moved to November 5
due to rain (200 attendance).
All concerts were held at the Arroyo Vista
Community Park starting at 5:00 p.m .
Concerts were free to the public. Income
sources included event sponsorships and
vendor fees. Average concert attendance
fell this year, from 587 last year to 400 this year. This may be due poor weather conditions
for two of the four concerts (The temperature for the August concert was 99°. The
September concert was rescheduled to November due to rain, but the weather during the
concert was a chilly 55 degrees and overcast.) This program will be included in next year’s
report; however, it should be noted that cost recovery will no longer apply as the program
will be funded out of the Arts Fund rather than the General Fund.

members. In addition to the City’s annual event sponsors, sponsorships were received
from Perez Family Funeral Homes and Theresa’s Country Pet & Feed ($500 from each),
Kahoots (use of hay bales) and Underwood Family Farms (pumpkins). Overall, the event
ran smoothly, and staff received many positive comments about it.

The Moorpark Earth Festival was held on Saturday, May
6 from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at the Arroyo Vista
Community Park in Parking Lot B. This event also
encompasses the City’s Arbor Day celebration.
The largest component of the event continues to be the
Community Yard Sale, which gives residents and
organizations an opportunity to purchase a space to sell
their gently used goods. The 2023 event had a total of
twenty-seven yard sale participants, a slight increase
from last year. The event also includes two eco-friendly
craft vendors, and booths with giveaways and activities
hosted by Waste Management, Moorpark City Library,
Peach Hill Soils, and West Coast Arborists. The City’s
Recreation Division, Active Adult Center, and Solid Waste Division also hosted booths.
The Recreation booth had information on the Mayor’s Monarch Pledge, had a seed
giveaway, and oversaw the distribution of the tree giveaway (the 2023 tree was a
Moorpark Apricot).

SKATE NIGHTS
Skate Nights are held on Saturdays from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m.
at the Arroyo Vista Community Park multiuse court. Each
Skate Night has a theme and includes open skating (roller
skates or roller blades), music, contests, and food vendors.
Admission to this event is free. Income for this event was
from event sponsorships and snack sales. The 2022/23
Skate Nights were scheduled for 9/17 (Old School), 10/15
(Monster Mash), 11/19 (Thanksgiving), 12/17 (Very Merry),
2/11 (Valentine), and 5/20 (Hop, Pop, Boogie & Bop). The
2022/23 season was plagued with poor weather. The October event was cancelled due
to drizzle and a rain forecast, the November event was cancelled due to high winds, and
while the events for December and February were held, the temperature was in the low
40s and cloudy. Despite the poor weather, attendance at each event that ran ranged from
a low of 30 at the December event to 150 at the September event. Although Skate Nights
do not draw large numbers, attendees consistently tell staff how much they enjoy the
events. For the 23/24 season, events will not be scheduled during the winter m onths,
instead focusing on early fall, late spring, and summer.

weekly/daily themed activities including sports,
games, crafts, STEM, special events, parties,
special guests, movies, and during the
summer, field trips. Structured activities are
held from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., with
extended care available from 7:00 a.m.
(summer) or 8:00 a.m. (school year) to 6:00

facility and the various amenities available at
the Arroyo Vista Community Park. The program allows parents to sign up for full weeks
or individual days. Fees for 2022/23 started at $199/week or $49/day.
Summer 2022 was very successful, with a significant increase in average daily
attendance. The summer included themes such as Out of this World, Holiday Hoopla,
Superhero Showdown, and Jump into the Jungle. After a two -year hiatus due to COVID-
19, field trips were reinstated. Field trips locations included Studio Movie Grill, Ventura
Aquatics Center, Underwood Family Farms, and the Santa Barbara Zoo. Field trips were
very poplar, with six of the 10 field trips filled to capacity, with the other four trips filling to

95-98% capacity. As was the case in 2021, the biggest challenge was recruiting a

MOORPARK LITTLE LEARNERS ACADEMY PRESCHOOL
Moorpark Little Learners Academy (MLLA) is
a traditional preschool program that prepares
students for entry into elementary school.
The program features classes for toddlers on
Monday and Wednesday or Tuesday and
Thursday, a 3-year-old class on Tuesday and
Thursday, and a 4-year-old class on Monday,
Wednesday, and Friday.
The 2022/23 school season started after
Labor Day in September and ran through
May 25. Monthly tuition was $250 for
toddlers, $335 for the 3-year-old class, and $425 for the 4-year-old class. Participants
continue to be happy with the quality of the program and staff often receive positive
feedback from the parents. Overall enrollment declined this year, with the program filling
to 85% capacity. The decline in enrollment was due largely to the public school’s
introduction of universal Pre-K. For the 2023/24 school year, the program will be modified
to provide services to younger students who are not eligible for Pre-K.

FLASH AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM
In November 2022, the Moorpark Unified School District approached the City regarding
after-school programming. The District requested the City’s assistance with offering after-
school programming for 6th grade students because the Boys and Girls Club (who had
been offering after-school programs at the Mesa Verde and Chaparral Middle School
campuses) had canceled their programs for the 22/23 school year. Staff worked with th e
District to develop FLASH (Fun Learning After School Hours) and entered into an
15

agreement for providing after-school programming. A trial program was run in May 2023
with the intention of launching a full-scale program in Fall 2023. However, the Boys and
Girls Club decided to return to the middle school campuses, negating the need for
assistance from the City to provide programming. The information below is for the trial
program. Although after-school programming will not be moving forward at this time, t he
District has stated there may be future opportunities to work jointly on after-school
programs.

YOUTH BASKETBALL LEAGUE
The youth basketball league is a co -ed
recreational league for youth. For the past
several years, divisions offered included Mites
for ages 5-6, Rookie for ages 7-8, Junior for
ages 9-10, and Teen for ages 11-13.
Beginning with Winter 22/23, a new division for
older teens was added for ages 13-15. The
former Teen division was renamed Minors
(ages 11-12), and the new Teen division was
named Majors (ages 13-15).
Games are played on Friday evenings and
Saturdays at the Arroyo Vista Recreation Center gym, and practices are held for one hour
each week. League fees ranged from $75.00 to $139.00 depending on season and age
division. Fees include a team jersey, photos, and a trophy or medal.
The program had upwardly trending enrollment until the COVID-19 pandemic forced the
cancellation of the spring 2020 through winter 2021 seasons. In 2021/22, the league was
able to run all four seasons and although enrollment was not quite at pre-pandemic levels
it was sufficient for the league to meet it cost recovery goal. This year saw a dramatic
increase in enrollment, with the Winter season having the 2 nd highest enrollment ever,
16
Parks and Recreation Commission

both Summer and Fall with 3rd highest enrollment ever, and Spring with the 4th highest
enrollment ever. As an enhancement to the league, an end -of season tournament was
held the first weekend in March (just after the Winter season concluded) which included
the top Moorpark teams plus top teams from several other area leagues including Santa
Paula, Fillmore, Thousand Oaks, and Oxnard. Originally scheduled for the AVRC gym,
due to flooding issues, it was moved to the Moorpark High School gym. Due to the
popularity of holding the tournament at the high school facility, staff is working with MUSD
to use the high school gym for the 2024 tournament.

MOORPARK YOUTH RUNNING CLUB
The Moorpark Youth Running Club was offered during the fall 2022 and winter 2023
seasons. The fall season cancelled due to low enrollment. The winter season took place
at the Arroyo Vista Community Park Recreational Trail and was coached by a volunteer.
The program’s purpose is to promote health and fitness in children. The club met weekly
for 4 weeks with the goal of running a distance equivalent to a half-marathon. As children
met distance goals, they received rewards, including gift certificates dona ted by local
businesses. The registration fee was $10, with an option to add a t-shirt for $15.

for the summer and fall seasons, but cancelled due
to lack of enrollment. The coed division was moved
to Wednesday in the spring, and ran with four teams.
All games were held at the Arroyo Vista Community
Park ballfields. League fees ranged from $400 to
$475 per team, based on length of season and
registration date. Official’s fees are paid directly to
officials by the teams.
Although enrollment, and correspondingly revenue,
increased compared to last year, it has not yet returned to pre-pandemic levels (45 total
teams in 2018/19, 59 in 2017/18, and 57 in 2016/17).

Staff Recommended Action for this Program to Meet Cost Recovery:
The City’s softball league has not been able to meet its minimum cost recovery
requirement due to a decline in team enrollment that began in FY 2013/14. Although the
program did not meet its minimum again this year, enrollment is trending upward.
18
Parks and Recreation Commission
11/06/2023 Regular Meeting
Page 19
Additionally, the percentage of indirect costs recovered is on an upward trend as well.
This year, the program recovered 46% of indirect costs, compared to 38% last year, 4%
in 2020/21, 12% in 2019/20, and 33% in 2018/19. Staff recommends continuing efforts to
increase league enrollment, reduce costs where feasible, and add more sports
programming to continue to help defray full-time staff costs.
ADULT BASKETBALL LEAGUES
The Adult Basketball League offers open divisions on
Monday and Thursday evenings, with games played at
the Arroyo Vista Recreation Center gym. League fees
ranged from $325 to $425 per team, based on length of

Staff Recommended Action for this Program to Meet Cost Recovery:
The adult basketball league suffers from the same issues as the softball league and has
not been able to meet its minimum cost recovery requirement for many years. However,
like softball, the percentage of indirect cost recovered is significantly higher this year than
the past several years (59% this year, compared to 36% in 21/22, 24% in 19/20, and 49%
in 18/19). Staff recommends taking the same approach with basketball as recommended
for softball.

PICKLEBALL TOURNAMENT
The first Apricot Slam was held in May 2021. Last year,
two tournaments were held: a fall tournament on
October 16 and 17, 2021, and a spring tournament on
May 21 and 22, 2022. This year also included two
tournaments, one on November 5 and 6, 2022 and the
other on May 6 and 7. 2023. The tournament offered
divisions for men, women, and coed at the 2.5, 3.0, 3.5,
and 4.0+ levels. The tournaments were held at the
Arroyo Vista Community Park tennis courts. Volunteer
support was crucial in implementing the tournament,
with substantial support from the tournament’s title sponsor, Lucky Fools Pub.
