MOORPARK CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA REPORT a0i3
TO: Honorable City Council
FROM: Stephanie Anderson, Recreation Superintendence
DATE: November 8, 2013 (Meeting of December 18, 2013)
SUBJECT: Consider Recreation Programs Cost Recovery Summary Fiscal
Year 2012-2013
BACKGROUND
On January 18, 2012, the City Council approved the Recreation Programs and Services
Cost Recovery Policy (Policy). The Policy defines costs, revenue sources, program
categories, and recovery levels. Costs currently 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 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 each 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 are expected to reach their minimum recovery goal within a period not to
exceed one year. 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 also authorized to exclude individual programs from
the requirements of the Cost Recovery Policy.
The Policy requires an annual reporting to the Parks and Recreation Commission and
Moorpark City Council on Recreation Programs and whether those programs met their
cost recovery goals. Attached for reference is the Cost Recovery Policy, which
establishes minimum and target cost recovery percentages for recreation programs.

Staff Recommended Actions for Programs Not Meeting Minimum Cost Recovery
Goals:
Moorpark Has Talent
The event is held at the High Street Arts Center, and helps promote that venue. It has
received positive response from event participants and attendees. This event is
currently categorized as "Other Event" because it requires participants to register and
audition in advance, and substantial donated financial prizes are distributed to winners.
This event is required to recoup 100% of indirect costs, and only recouped 81%.
Although this is an improvement over last year (when only 29% of indirect costs were
recouped) the program did not meet the minimum cost recovery requirement.
Financial donations are used to pay for the prizes awarded to the event winners. Unless
additional large sponsorships are received to supplement direct costs, it is unlikely this
event will be able to meet its cost recovery minimum. This is primarily due to the fact
that the venue can only accommodate a defined number of participants and attendees.
Staff recommends that the event be excluded from the cost recovery requirements, as
allowed by the Recreation Programs and Services Cost Recovery Policy Right of
Exclusion.
General Teen Events
Providing recreation programming to the City's teen population is a priority for the City.
These events are categorized as "Special Event" and are required to recoup at least
50% of direct costs. Over the course of this fiscal year, these events recouped only
32%, a decrease from last year's 45.9%. This is the second year these programs have
not been able to meet the required minimum cost recovery. Staff recommends
eliminating those specific events which have generally not met the minimum recovery,
including movie nights, the Holiday Movie Marathon, Sports Day, and Pi Day. Staff will
focus on events that have met or are close to meeting the minimum cost recovery,
including game nights and cupcake challenges, and will continue to explore new teen
events that will both draw larger numbers of teens and meet the minimum cost recovery
requirements.
Teen Skate Events
As described for General Teen Events, providing recreation programming to the City's
teen population is a priority. Teen Skate Events are also categorized as "Special Event"
and are required to recoup at least 50% of direct costs. Over the course of this fiscal
year, these events recouped only 4%, a significant decrease from last year's 31.9%.
Due to poor attendance and issues with enforcement of safety gear rules, staff
recommends discontinuing these events.

The Hang Out
This program was offered to provide activities for older middle school youth on a school
free day. Due to a lack of interest in the program, it has not been offered again.
Adult Basketball League
This adult sports league is required to recoup 75% of indirect costs. Over the course of
the fiscal year, it recouped 55% of indirect costs, a decrease from last year's 68%. Staff
recommends continuing the program. In order to meet the minimum cost recovery
requirement, enrollment in the program must be increased.
Adult Soccer League
This adult sports league is required to recoup 75% of indirect costs. Over the course of
the fiscal year, it recouped 55% of indirect costs. Last year, this program did meet its
minimum cost recovery requirement. Although participation and revenue in this program
increased this year, compared to last year, the increase was not enough to keep pace
with increases in both direct and indirect costs. Staff recommends continuing the
program. In order to meet the minimum cost recovery requirement next year, staff will
look for creative ways to reduce overall program costs and increase revenue (through
increased enrollment and/or fee increases).

1. Purpose
The purpose and intent of the City Council in adopting the Recreation Programs
and Services Cost Recovery Policy is to provide direction to staff in calculating
and establishing fees and charges for recreation programs, to establish a
process to recover the appropriate portion of cost based on the recovery goals of
the program, to provide a framework to modify or eliminate programs that do not
meet the minimum cost recovery goals, and to determine the extent to which the
General Fund will fund above the amount collected in fees recreation programs
and services.
2. Program Costs
Costs for each program shall be divided into three categories: 1. direct costs; 2.
division indirect costs; and 3. other indirect costs. Each cost category shall have
established minimum and target cost recovery percentages. Costs for programs
shall be defined as follows:

5. Definition of Recovery Levels
Program Categories will be placed into recovery levels establishing the
percentage of required minimum and target cost recovery the program. Levels
are defined as follows:
A. Level One: Programs that are of a benefit to the whole community or are
essential to the health and well-being of a target segment of the
community, are typically provided by public agencies and not typically
available through other providers, and require minimal commitment from
participants (minimal time or financial investment is required, performance
of program would not be altered by the absence of a single participant,
and/or advance registration is not required.)
B. Level Two: Programs that provide a benefit to a targeted segment of the
community, are often offered by public agencies, are limited in availability
from other providers, and require minimal commitment from participants.
C. Level Three: Programs that provide both a community and individual
benefit, are often offered by public agencies and may be available through
other providers; and require some level of commitment from participants.
299
D. Level Four: Programs that have a greater individual than community
benefit, may be offered by public agencies or private businesses or other
providers, are instructional or recreational in nature, and require a strong
commitment from the participant (substantial time or financial investment
is required, performance of program may be altered by the absence of a
participant, and/or advance registration is required.)
E. Level Five: Programs that provide primarily an individual benefit and are
specialized or competitive in nature.
6. Cost Recovery Matrix
In accordance with the Cost Recovery Levels, the following matrix has been
developed. The minimum recovery indicates the percentage of costs that must
be recovered in order to continue offering the program without modification. The
target recovery indicates the percentage of costs that staff will attempt to recover
through program fees and other revenue sources.

for achieving cost recovery goals. Strategies will be implemented based on the
best interests of maintaining a strong program and reaching the designated
recovery goals within a period not to exceed one year. The process for cost
recovery shall be as follows: •
300
A. Each recreation program or service will be assigned to the
appropriate Program Category, establishing the recovery level for
the program.
B. Staff will determine appropriate revenue source(s) for the program
and establish user fees, sponsorships/donations, vendor fees,
and/or grant amounts necessary to meet minimum cost recovery.
C. Programs will be reviewed annually to determine if they are
meeting the minimum cost recovery percentage.
D. Programs that are unable to meet the minimum cost recovery will
be reviewed by the Department Director for consideration of
appropriate action, including restructuring or eliminating the
program.
E. Programs that meet minimum cost recovery and do not exceed
target recovery will not require action.
F. Programs that exceed target cost recovery will be reviewed to
determine whether or not fees should be decreased, the program
should be placed in a different Program Category or Recovery
Level, or other action is needed.
G. An annual report will be presented to the Parks and Recreation
Commission by October 31 and to the City Council by December
31 each year summarizing the programs offered during the prior
fiscal year and whether cost recovery goals for each program were
met.
8. Right of Exclusion
The City Manager is authorized to exclude individual programs from the Cost Recovery
Policy. Said programs shall be budgeted as approved by the City Council. Said
